Google Labs is where Google's latest tech innovations are made available to the public to test and provide feedback.

Some of the apps become full Google products while others quietly disappear from view. Graduates include the web portal iGoogle, Google Desktop and the RSS feed aggregator, Google Reader.

silicon.com took a look around Google Labs and picked out some of the most interesting apps currently making an appearance in Labs along with some recent products that have made it onto the search giant's full time roster.

Shown above is Google InQuotes which uses quotes from stories that appear in Google News on a particular subject. This page compares quotes from Barack Obama and John McCain from the recent US presidential race.
