Google Squared is a semantic search[1] product from Google. It was announced on May 12, 2009 and was launched on Google Labs on June 3, 2009. Squared was developed at Google's New York office.[2] It is the first significant effort by Google to understand information on the web and present it in new ways.[3]
Google Squared extracts structured data from across the web and presents its results in spreadsheet-like format.[4] Each search query return a table of search results which has its own set of columns - common attributes that are associated with the topic of a search.[1] Nathania Johnson of Search Engine Watch described Squared as "quite possibly ... one of Google's significant achievements".[5]
