A colleague of mine asked me to check out Preview Seek, new search engine which is still in beta. The search screen was quite bland, and I didn’t expect much from the search results.

I put in a search request for “Test� and the results page was quite a stunner. The results were categorized properly on the left side. The center block informed me that test has various meanings, listing out a few to refine the search results by. Check the following image:

Each search result had a preview option, which opened up the site listed in a preview pane within the search results. No more guessing on what the result site has to offer!

I wonder what other wonders will be packed into Preview Seek before they get out of beta
