Google User Interface Experiments

Last updated Mar. 11, 2009.

Google likes to experiment with a small subset of its users. Every once in awhile, some small percentage of users will see a slightly different user interface (UI). These Google UI tests may or may not be adopted depending on how users respond. Below is a list from from my Del.icio.us bookmarks of examples that I've come across along with a short description and the date that I found the example (which is not necessarily when it was first tried). When possible, I try to bookmark reports that have screenshots of the experiment, and note if Google has adopted the experiment.
