Tecno-net spotted yet another new Google user interface test. This one has the search navigation, options and filters across the top of the the search results page.

It leaves the left hand side wide open and blank for a lot of other uses such as maybe ads?

Here is a picture what it looks like:

Do you think Google is trying to open up the left and right for more ads?
