Google building new-generation search engine

SAN FRANCISCO - Google has rolled back the curtain on a secret project codenamed "Caffeine" focused on building a new iteration of its winning Internet search engine.

"For the last several months, a large team of Googlers has been working on a secret project: a next-generation architecture for Google's Web search," Google engineers Sitaram Iyer and Matt Cutts said in an official blog post.

"It's the first step in a process that will let us push the envelope on size, indexing speed, accuracy, comprehensiveness and other dimensions."

People on Tuesday could use the new technology online at www2.sandbox.google.com.

The search page looks identical to the classic, clean Google Web page long associated with the Internet titan.

"The new infrastructure sits 'under the hood' of Google's search engine, which means that most users won't notice a difference in search results," the engineers wrote.

Forgive me but if it's identical to the classic Google and most users won't notice a difference im search results what's the point?

To distract from the news that finally Google's market share is declining.
