Whether you’re reading a news article, shopping for a new pair of shoes or visiting your favorite musician’s website, Google Related works in the background to find you the most interesting and relevant content on the topics you’re currently viewing. For example, if you visit a restaurant’s website, Related can show you a map, reviews from Google Places, mentions from across the web and other similar eateries that you might want to try.

Google Related results will get displayed in a thin bar at the bottom of  user’s screen (as shown in the above image) and it will be minimized until a user hover over them with mouse. Out of given all the options, once you select any specific option from the thin bar, that item will immediately open up in the same browser window, this helps getting rid of opening up multiple windows and tabs.

Google Related has built-in Google +1 button which will allow you to share something that you find interesting.

If you want to experience Google Related then for Chrome it is available in the Chrome Web Store and for Internet Explorer it is added as a new feature in Google Toolbar.

It looks like this new feature will be more helpful to the product based and local target market websites and the internet marketers who are specially working on ecommerce websites and helping local business owners to optimize their local business will require to pay extra attention towards this.
