In the same way, you can also preview documents related to each result item, as well as additional results pages within the same domain as the site that you're previewing.


The following picture shows an example of the similar pages listing you get as a result of your search CNN.




By clicking on the similar pages icon for the "CNN" result item, you get a hit list containing links to the websites of other news agencies or channels like "ABC", "BBC" and others...


In the same way operates related documents link. In this case, it will show you links to documents (pdf, swf, doc, etc.) instead to websites. Keep in mind that you can preview documents on the same page, as we saw in search and preview multiple documents easily post.


One final interesting feature is "More results from this site" link, which like the other previously annotated links, shows you the pages related to the search concept you want, but in this case, within the domain www.cnn.com that you had selected.
