Default Kick the tires on this new search UI

This is a beta search UI from a team at Microsoft...

The navigation on the lower left lets you filter by news, video, rss, etc. You can save your results to the clip board and name them.

"News" builds a clean news page of your results.

There is also a tree feature, but I'm not sure the metaphor of the tree is great idea - you can see this under the web search, by clicking the small tree icon

You can install it. It's MS new product which will compete with Flash.

I haven't had any issues with it - and I've been using it since beta.

Note: Sliverlight is production (1.0) the search is beta.
