For Visual Search Results, try RedZee Search 2.0
I’ve seen prototypes of this technology, but here is the real thing. Go to RedZee, type ‘Absinthe’ (or something) into the search box and click on Search 2.0.
Close this window.
Hold down one of the screens with your mouse, and drag it left and right, and more left and more right.
Now, how does that compare to the results for a traditional (major) search engine?

Funny idea, not sure it worths a dedicated website (any search engine + preview plugin would do the trick more flexibly) but still, here is the result of my search :

Nice.
Make much more sense compare to the “google results” from the main 4 engines.
One more nice thing - the tabbing once the user visited a result - then go back to the “main window” etc.
I’m missing :
1. scroll with the mouse that should be going the same as the drag OR zoom in to one of the results that the user would like to look “deeper” into before I “commit ” to a “click”.
2. click the image to jump to the result instead of looking for the link below.
Nice to see the TV ad (although I expected to see the Zebra fall once it jumped the ceiling at the end
)
I’ll send this to the redzee site - see if they want to comment on this post.
Thanks

Anyone thinking about the ads (or lack of ads) for search engines .
