Google has launched a new, mysterious service called What Do You Love. It’s a simple search box, similar to the one on Google’s homepage, but it returns results from over 20 different Google services, including Google Translate, Trends, YouTube, Maps, Groups etc.
The results are presented in little boxes which can, in some cases, be expanded by clicking on the icon in the lower right corner; if you need even more results, you can always click the button in the upper right corner of the box and go directly to the chosen service.
The concept reminds us of iGoogle, a service that lets you add simple apps to your own personalized portal. What Do You Love, however, instantly creates a mini-portal about any term you choose, which makes it a nice option for users who don’t have the time to tinker with options and simply want to have access to Google’s many services on one page.
The service, located on the address www.wdyl.com and google.com/whatdoyoulove/, bears Google’s copyright mark, but very little explanation, and it hasn’t so far been announced on any of Google’s official blogs. Tell us how you like it in the comments!
