If only it can rearrange the original result in 2 columns without any change. I wanted to screenshot a phenomenon where the advertised website would be assigned to other values than the one in the search result, but clearly this doesnt do it. Query: Room Rental in XXX, Result: [AD] Website A: Room Rental in BBB <Advertised result is not in the two column.> [Normal result] Website A: Room Rental in XXX

It is great but it messes with local search with a &tbm=lcl where maps are shown. It should use a regex to disable the extension on such pages.

Great idea. But need some improvements. Messes up image search. Sometimes breaks a search result in middle sentence. Would be nice to have option of placing every other result in second column. Hope it gets updated
