Google Give Searchers 'Instant Previews' of Result Pages

First pressing 'Enter' was to much work... now actually clicking on the links and visiting the sites is to much, too... Google is testing instant previews, where you can see a miniature rendered view of the landing page without requiring you to click through and back-arrow.

Some statistics on porn pages

[Okian Warrior]

In March of this year (2010), I did an image search of the most common English words and visually counted into the list to the first porn image. (For my subjective definition of porn).

My reasoning was that some words are closely associated with prurient intent, and I was wondering if there could be a "distance to porn" defined in conceptual space. For example, "foot" would probably have a large prurient distance, while "head" would be a short distance due to phrases like "giving head" &c.

To my surprise, nearly all common English words are really, *really* close to porn by that measure.

It's 8 months later. I redo the search and see almost nothing which would constitute porn.

I guess they've cleaned up their image search algorithm or something.

Here's the top of original list, from March 2010:
