Google’s Newest Baby: Meet the Wonder Wheel!

Ever heard of “mind mapping”?  Well that is the premise behind one of Google’s latest innovations in the battle to be the Web’s dominant search engine.

Introduced in May, it’s called the Wonder Wheel, a wheel-shaped tool which tries to simplify and arrange your search results. It operates a bit like a story board by connecting relevant and related searches to something you’re already looking for.

Take a look at it and see if you don’t agree it is pretty cool: http://tiny.cc/zf106

The wheel is definitely taking off worldwide and has reached 1 million users already. The fact that Google defines it as a “pre-defined mind mapper which helps the user get all the related search results in a wheel shaped like display (similar to mind mapping softwares which are commonly used by many),” has given users another reason to use it in addition to the features already provided by the company.
