What are the differences between old Google features and new Google features, 2010?


I want to know the differences between old Google features and new Google features, 2010. I am very curious to know about it. So, please tell me all the differences between them. If possible try to compare new Google features with bing features as bing is the latest search engine. Thanks.

The year 2010 was a banner year for Google in terms of new products and features introduced. The company which made more than 40 acquisitions to improve products and gain traction in key markets. It reacted to challenges in search and cloud computing collaboration by Microsoft. Google did also fasten its Android operating system development to keep its speed with Apple's popular iPhone and iPad tablet computers. The company launched its Google Buzz social conversation service the very next month as an alternative to Facebook, which emerged as the search engine's greatest threat. The new features have also posed a threat to other social networking sites.

Here are some features of Google, 2010 which the new version will be missing:

1) It can not label or assign to a collection/folder, instead you have to drag and drop. In some cases, it is difficult to do if you have several levels of collections.
2) "Hide it" in previous version used to be more intuitive than "Do not show in home".
3) In the result of a search, it does not have any action link to any of those actions that you can do on normal list. No "select all", no "Actions" will drop down.
4) I think in the previous edition there used to be a duplicate action item that enabled to make a copy from list view.
It would be really nice to have these back as they proved to be very useful and are most necessary to handle a large list of docs.

While the new version of Google, 2010 has the following features:

Google has just made it even very easier to make a image as a link and to remove the default link applied to the image. they have also updated an article - Google Sites - Making an Image a Link -which shows the new way to do it by just using the Google Sites tools.
