Google now highlights in-depth results - Softonic EN

Google announced today that it would be changing its search results by highlighting in-depth articles about a broad topic. The company hopes that this will help users searching for broad topics like "Earth" or "English."

This move isn't too surprising as Google already does something similar with its Knowledge Graph where search results display what it thinks is relevant to your search. These results show up on the right side of search results, which resemble Google Now cards.

Google will pull in-depth results from renown sites The New Yorker and The Guardian. Critics may be wary as Google owns a lot of products and services that it could potentially prioritize over other contents. There's no information about how exactly Google's algorithm works to define what results are considered "in-depth."

For now, the in-depth results will only show up for US users starting today. The search giant did not comment about when this feature will show up overseas.
