bing-b-logoBing has officially announced they have redesigned the search results screen and social sidebar to help improve usability of the page.

The changes include:

  • The social results on the right are now clearly labelled as “Social Results”
  • The search results on the left are now left-justified
  • Addition of a + more link to expand the results to see more.

We saw this was coming in tests that were leaked a few weeks ago. In that story, Danny Sullivan digs deeper into the main changes.

Here are screen shots of before and after:
