Last month we reported that Google was testing a tab user interface to toggle between a local panel's overview and reviews. Well, it seems like this new user interface is rolling out. Google has not confirmed it yet, I'll work on getting that.

Here is a screen shot of my company showing the tab option, I made it an animated GIF so you can see the toggle action between "overview" and "reviews."

Sergey Alakov, the man who first noticed the test, also was the first to ask if it is rolling out. He asked on Twitter if there is a roll out. I testing many mobile browsers and I am able to replicate it for tons of different locations on different browsers.

Can you?

Personally, I like this new tab approach.

Forum discussion at Twitter.
