Even Google Tries Anonymity Cloak

A new search engine on the web has Google behind it as its developer. Searchmash.com is the new creation for Google, although you wouldn't know it by looking at the site. If you click on the "terms of service" it reveals that it is a site run by Goggle. Why the secrecy? An article written in ITBusinessEdge.com states that it is an unmarked search engine "aimed at test-driving features among users who don't know they are using a Google product."

Take a walk through the search engine...it has some different features. One that I think is interesting is when you get your search results you also automatically get 3 images to match those results on the right hand side.

Some of these features may or may not appear on the main Google site in the future. Take Searchmash.com for a spin.
