Google Scribe is a new project from Google labs that aids your text typing experience extremely simple, fas and accurate. This new project from Google labs actually provides auto-completion/suggestions as you type along any text input field for example, twitter, comment form, composing email, web chat etc.

When you begin your typing with Google Scribe enabled, your browser will send a query to Google to see if there are any popular and relevant suggestions for the document that you are writing.

Using information from what you have already typed in a document, Google Scribe provides related word or phrase completion suggestions. In addition to saving keystrokes, Google Scribe’s suggestions indicate correct or popular phrases to use.

For instance, you can see how it suggested Anthropology when I typed Anthro.
