Google testing new tool to check internet speeds directly in search results

Google appears to be testing a new widget that lets users check their internet speed directly in search results.

As shown in this screen shot shared via a tweet from Moz marketing scientist Dr. Pete Meyers, a Google search for “check internet speed” returned the internet speed test widget with a “Run Speed Test” button.

Looks like Google is testing their own internet speed test (query = “check internet speed”) – not seeing it live — http://pic.twitter.com/wjsPIlEbFv

Powered by Measurement Labs, Google’s internet speed widget seems to be in test mode, as it doesn’t display for all users entering the same “check internet speed” search phrase.
