When a visitor performs a site-flavored Google search, some results may display with a small graphic of colored balls. This graphic is an indication to searcher that Google determined result next to it was relevant to their search. This is an option that is set by webmaster in site-flavored search profile. Note that a user's browser must be relatively new (IE5 or higher, NS5 or higher, or Mozilla 1.4 or higher), and they must have Javascript enabled, in order to use site-flavored search.

Previously asked questions and answers are posted, searchable, and freely available at Google Answers site. Other users may make comments on questions and answers, to help clarify information you receive.

Google Answers isn't magic. They can't answer unanswerable questions, and they won't provide medical, legal, or financial advice. But for other tough questions that you just can't find an answer for on your own, Google Answers may be, well, answer!
