Ask X is the new Ajax based version of Ask.com’s search engine. Although the results still is the same, some results took some time showing up.
In today’s version of Ask X, you’re not just getting back a list of links, but a slick, new three-panel interface (much like the new AskCity), combining great time-saving features like:
- Left: A search control panel that stays with you, complete with Zoom Related Search and Search Suggestions that update as you type.
- Middle: Results front and center to provide clutter-free information without having to scroll down the page, and Binoculars to preview results.
- Right: A preview of other types of search results, including video, news, images, blogs, shopping, encyclopedia and more.
