Google is adding the About This Result to help users be better informed about their search results.
A new Google feature called About This Result is meant to help users make a more informed decision about what they've just searched for.
Starting Monday, users of the search engine will see a new menu icon that you can tap after you've Googled a topic. When you click the menu icon, the About This Result feature will tell you a bit more about the website you're about to visit, according to a blog post from Google product manager JK Kearns. The website's description is pulled from Wikipedia, a website with an open-editing model.
If there isn't a Wikipedia description, Google will try to provide other helpful context in its place.
About This Result begins rolling out in English on Monday for US desktops , mobile web and Android's Google app.
