This comes from Chris:

I swear my old house was haunted by demons. Whenever I was home alone at night and everything was shut and locked suddenly the house would go completely silent. Then the basement door would be open and you could see these glaring red eyes. And, during the day there is nothing to ever cause those red glowing eyes. Then you could see your breath because it turned so cold. Then finally you could hear this terrified screaming that actually shook the house… It was scary as anything and I was only a little kid and saw this every night. No wonder why I get nightmares.

Right now, it’s faded and all good gone!

Keeping it short and simple often pays off in Google searches. Starting today, however, any queries three words or longer pay off with longer text snippets in the results, giving you more context for your terms.

It looks like Google will roll down to three or sometimes four lines to present more of your search terms in the sentences they pop up in, which we have to imagine is a pretty good thing for most anyone. Google’s also touting an improved algorithm for the “Searches related to: your terms here” splice that often appears after the second or third item on a results page. No details, really, other than Google understanding more queries, more languages, and being “more relevant.” Speaking of Google search, how do you force Google to understand a possibly confusing search in context? If you’ve got the Google-fu, educate the grasshoppers among us in the comments. Screenshots from Google.
