Visualize search results a whole new way with Google Squared. Export your search results and data to a Google Spreadsheet.

Google Squared takes a category and creates a starter 'square' of information, automatically fetching and organizing facts from across the web. This could be used for vocabulary lists (it includes an image and description and you can add custom columns) or other types of research. Finished squares can be downloaded as .csv or to Google Spreadsheet.><script type="text/javascript">window.gbar={};(function(){function i(a,b,d){var c="on"+b;if(a.addEventListener)a.addEventListener(b,d,false);else if(a.attachEvent)a.attachEvent(c,d);else{var f=a[c];a[c]=function(){var h=f.apply(this,arguments),e=d.apply(this,arguments);return h==undefined?e:e==undefined?h:e&&h}}};var j=window.gbar,k,l;function m(a){var b=window.encodeURIComponent&&(document.forms[0].q||"").value;if(b)a.href=a.href.replace(/([?&])q=[^&]*|$/,function(d,c){return(c||"&")+"q="+encodeURIComponent(b)})}j.qs=m;function n(a,b,d,c,f,h){var e=document.getElementById(a),g=e.style;if(e){g.left=c?"auto":b+"px";g.right=c?b+"px":"auto";g.top=d+"px";g.visibility=l?"hidden":"visible";if(f){g.width=f+"px";g.height=h+"px"}else{n(k,b,d,c,e.offsetWidth,e.off
