Internet giant Google has announced the completion of work on its new index system Caffeine.
The company said it will provide 50 per cent "fresher" search engine results for online content from news stories to forum posts. As web pages become increasingly diverse and complex, the group claims Caffeine will allow relevant content to be found faster than ever.
Software engineer Carrie Grimes explained that the new system analyses the web and updates the search index constantly, adding new pages as they are found. She added that information can now be found with the minimum of searching, regardless of when or where the content was first published.
"Whether it's a news story, a blog or a forum post, you can now find links to relevant content much sooner after it is published than was possible ever before," Ms Grimes said.
According to Google, Caffeine – which adds hundreds of thousands of gigabytes of information every day – represents the most comprehensive collection of web content currently available. Furthermore, the company has pledged that further improvements will be implemented to the system in the coming months.
