Google's search results are surely very important for most of the Internet users, as well as other information provided by the search giant's products. Take for example Google Maps that provides you useful imagery capture from the satellites with a certain location in the entire world. If you're looking for a certain city, building or street, then Google Maps is the right product for your need. OK, so you have your own website but the only services provided by Google and included on your page are probably the AdSense adverts and a tiny custom search engine. Have you ever asked yourself if you can enhance your website with even more tools provided by Google?

Of course you can because the company revealed some time ago a new tool able to display latest headlines provided by Google News on your page. Today, the Google employees presented even more similar services, allowing you to add Google search results, video search and book search on your website.

"If you're looking for an easy way to add some interactivity to your site, we've got just the tool for you. The AJAX Search Wizards allow you to add a video, news, and local search results to your web page without writing any code. Just tell us how you want the widget to display and what searches to automatically execute, and the wizard will generate the code for you to copy and paste into your web page," Peter Deng, Google AJAX Search API Team, sustained on the official blog of the company.

I must recognize that the implementation of the products presented today is quite simple because the users must follow a simple wizard containing 3 steps that will configure the final HTML code according to your settings. Then, you'll have to place the code into your website and publish the modified configuration. Quick, simple and easy to use!
