Watch the video! Pretty awesome, eh?
The problem is, as TechCrunch says, what about the advertising? Does every page refresh count as an ad impression? Will slower typists incur more screen refreshes? By the same rationale, surely real-time results like that must chew through the bandwidth, especially as search results become more interactive and media-rich.
Chances are, though, we won't see these real-time as-you-type search results in their current form. Google famously works on hundreds of little tweaks at any given time, each being rolled out to just a tiny fraction of its users. Instead, this technology might find its way to YouTube, or (gasp) Gmail! Having said that, as long as it doesn't impact too heavily on bandwidth and advertising concerns, maybe we will see it on Google Search!
