A couple weeks ago we reported Google was testing updating search results as you type. Google confirmed this to be a test and we went on with our business.

Today, there are reports of Google’s home page showing search results as you type your query. You can be on Google.com, see the search box and begin entering your query. As you type, Google may flip you to a search results page without you completing your typing, without hitting enter or without hitting the “Google Search” button.

A video of this in action has been captured by Websonic.nl and here it is:

This morning, Google’s logo changed colors as you type. I suspect and predicted that Google will announce that the search results as you type is one of the many new features Google will releasing today at the search event.

Postscript: You can read our live blogging or learn how to watch the Google search event live at 9:30 PST by going here.
