Google launches new “SearchWiki” in NZ
I was searching on Google last night, admittedly via my Gmail account (and thats how this happened) and I noticed some new icons, like in attached photo.
Apparently between you & me, Google have launched a new service – SearchWiki.
From the official Google blog….
users can..”customize search by re-ranking, deleting, adding, and commenting on search results. With just a single click you can move the results you like to the top or add a new site. You can also write notes attached to a particular site and remove results that you don’t feel belong. These modifications will be shown to you every time you do the same search in the future.”
Others explain it much more eloquently than I can. Although some have their own opinion.
Gmail has also given users finally a chance to ditch that normal boring old white background and have introduced themes. Have set my theme as the Oceans one already.
What do you think, a good idea?
