Google Updates Autocomplete Suggestions!

Now what were doing is making predictions based on only part of your search-specifically, the last word or words. While few people have searched for -florida state senate building-, many more have searched for -state senate building-. By looking at just the last part of what youve typed into the box, in this case state senate bui, we can generate a prediction for building. Youll see a dropdown box below the end of your search with predictions for just that word.

According to the software engineer, the updated feature will particularly help while running long queries as such queries are likely to be more unusual too. To select the suggested query, you simply click on the suggestion or arrow down or up and hit enter as before.

The update is in effect for all the English language users of the search engine around the world. Other language users can expect this new update in the near future as the company makes some more improvements and runs some more tests on the feature.
