No more enter keys for you, mister. Quick thinking user Rob Ousbey made a quick video of a search function that Google is testing with some of its users: searches that update as you type.

Of course it only lasted for a limited amount of time, but TechCrunch has done the heavy lifting and confirmed with Google that is is something they are working on.

A Google spokesperson told them:

“At any given time we are running between 50-200 search experiments. You can learn more on our blog.”

Google would not comment as to whether there was any kind of timetable for releasing this feature to the general public.
