Thanks for your response, Eric!

Keep us posted if anything else of interest comes up when you try to use the voice search feature!

It’s only on my Chrome browser (non-extension) but not on my IE or Firefox. It just showed up. The voice commands work as a way to search without google suggest. Here are some interesting results:
1. “Four times 2″ results in “4 * 2 = 8″
2. “Four divided by 2″ results in “4 divided by 2 = 2″
3. “For God is Good” results in “4 God is good”
4. “Four plus three thousand” results in “4 + 3000 = 3004″
5. “Three zero zero” results in “300″
6. speaking an 8 digit phone number in a “phone cadence” splits the numbers into two groups of four.
7. Speaking “images” “gmail” and other things just lead to the main search function of what is said. “Image of a cow” will not lead to an image search but the phrase “image of a cow” type into the main window. Same thing with video and directions. I tried “Navigate to” and that didn’t do anyting either

Some operators work, but not all. This is very interesting in what how it makes me think differently…
