Google Instant is a new search enhancement that shows results as we are typing in the search box. We can get results more faster than previous. You need not to type the full search term. Just start typing and results appear right before you. You can also get predictions for your search.
The top prediction is shown in grey text directly in the search box so you need to complete your search.
