On February 26, 2009, Google software engineer Matt Cutts collected questions on Google Moderator and answered many of them on video.

BlindFiveYearOld from SF, CA asked:

When did "Did you mean" search results begin to be displayed? And what is the criteria for presenting "Did you mean" search results above the normal search results?
