Google turned on Google Squared Wednesday, letting the public test out its attempt to present search results in grid format.
Google Squared was first demonstrated at Google's Searchology event in May, when the company showed off how a query for a category such as "U.S. Presidents" would return a number of results for the gentlemen who have held that office sorted by categories, such as political party, number of terms in office, years in office, as well as any number of customized categories.
This is very much a Google Labs project, far from a complete part of the Google search experience, and early experiments left a lot to be desired. Google Squared finds Web pages that have been indexed, just like with a regular search, but presents them in a spreadsheet format that, if the data was relevant, could potentially be more useful to someone doing research on a particular topic.
