Super Awesome SERPs

[kchandler]

Okay, anyone else notice the resent UI launch in the Google SERPs? I was planning a trip to visit a friend in Dayton, Ohio and used the query "things to do in dayton oh" and i got a really neat points of interest bar and city stats.

Anyone notice anything else neat with the UI change? Seems like some good stuff for local possibly.

Yep, its the expanded knowledge graph (knowledge carousel). First time I saw that though it was awesome too haha

I know it also shows up when you search for an author's books and "things to do" searches. Haven't seen it for many other things.

That's really neat - I saw it and was pretty blown away. Some times the big guys at Google make some stupid moves but this was definitely a beneficial one toward end users.

Pretty cool, however I noticed that it only appears for "things to do in {insert large city name here}". Small cities don't show ... yet (things to do in laramie wy)
