Google Testing Nav Placement

It’s always interesting to see examples of Google testing changes to the interface. Since only a very small percent of searchers are included in the tests, it’s rare that the average searcher notices the change. If Google ends up not liking the results, whatever it was they were testing just quietly disappears.

Today it’s reported that Google is playing with moving its navigation from the top of the results page to a column left of the results.
