Google Tests Vertical Line Next To Search Results Snippet On Hover

Google is testing a vertical bar or vertical line next to the search results snippets when you hover your mouse over the snippet. Mordy Oberstein said this was spotted by Shay Harel, the Founder/CEO of RankRanger.

Here is his screen shot:

This seems familiar but I cannot find a story that I've written on this in my massive Google user interface changes list... I've seen similar things to this, but not this exactly.

This is a minor change but part of the 3,200 changes Google made in a year.

Here is the tweet:

Looks like Google is testing a "side highlight border" when you hover over a result's title....

Interesting.
