Google Instant is a new search enhancement that shows results as users type.

How to turn it on :-

1. go to http://www.google.com/preferences

2.Google Instant


3.  Save preferences.

and you’re ready to go and test Google instant.  According to google the benifits are

Faster Searches: By predicting your search and showing results before you finish typing, Google Instant can save 2-5 seconds per search.

Smarter Predictions: Even when you don’t know exactly what you’re looking for, predictions help guide your search. The top prediction is shown in grey text directly in the search box, so you can stop typing as soon as you see what you need.

Instant Results: Start typing and results appear right before your eyes. Until now, you had to type a full search term, hit return, and hope for the right results. Now results appear instantly as you type, helping you see where you’re headed, every step of the way.

It also  doesn’t effect ranking of the search results.

Now when we tried it we found it quite useful but to mostly to the users who are new to googling or are not that sophisticated. Advanced users can do with without this feature.  Still a nice functionality again from google which I think users will like.
