google-options Google is testing a new search layout that lets users decide if they would like to see longer text excerpts, dates, places and even images inside regular search pages.

You also have the option to limit Google search results to fresh pages only (like show pages created since last month) without using the "Advance Search Page".

To start with, users are presented with a "Search Options" link that brings up a list of relevant options in the right sidebar. All screenshots are more or less self-explanatory.

1. Show pages created in the past month. (also see - ego surfing with Google)

search-by-date

2. Show Search Snippets with Longer Text - this may also be a blessing for screen scrappers who make websites using content from Google Search pages.

3. Show Dates & Places in Search Results Snippets - If Google can recognize any content in the web page that looks like a date or a place, it will be show in the search pages while the regular content is shown in light color.

4. Show both Images & Text from Web Pages - This may a good option when search for images galleries on Google. You can do something in Google Image Search using the site: operator but here, the text snippets and images appear side by side.
