Google Buckets [del.icio.us] — 1.Bucket your search results 2. see how other have bucketed results 3. See comments other have associated with buckets
sweet! But seems a little dangerous. - shaun mclane
very interesting - Paul Buchheit
very cool social search evolution, but like sellers on eBay over time you will severely disadvantage new sites with no rating - George Lee
Is This The Future Of Search? - TechCrunch - Jed White
Preview of new Google social search features - Jed White
Those kind of ratings are often open to abuse and misuse - Sally Church
Intrigued by the option of saving my own comments. Anyone know how many characters fit in those comment boxes? - Noah Sussman
Google must have a solution to control abuse - Seth Garrison
Is This The Future Of Search? - Jesse McPherson
I agree with Sally. This looks like it's making it too easy to abuse the search results. From the video I noticed that there were comments from "Unknown" users. If it's THAT open to editing, it's definitely going to be a spam-magnet. Let's wait and see... - Ricardo Vidal
[From FriendFeed]: I know Mike and Jason are friends, that's probably why he says the new Google search interface ... http://bit.ly/2aYFkB - Dave Winer
over time an interface like this would really disrupt SEO efforts. - AJ Kohn
[TechCrunch]: Is This The Future Of Search? - tech.newsjunk.com
"In effect, this bucket test shows a Google that combines their search algorithm with every important feature of Digg." - tech.newsjunk.com
Reminds me of Friendfeed. - Jason Wehmhoener
This has so much potential. Sure it could disrupt SEO efforts, but that's a good thing. - Chris
Having comments must mean that other people can view them.. Anybody see conversations moving to another place? - Varun Pitale
Unnecessary clutter - LPH
Google wants to be everywere in the web and have everything. - Christian Van Der Henst
It will be interesting to see how reliable these signals are. I know in the early days when the smiley face and frown face were available in the toolbar, there was some debate about whether those ended up having an inverse reliability. Meaning, spammy sites were being voted up by the spammers themselves. - Sacca
If this is the future of Google, I'm gonna start looking for another search engine: http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/07/16/is-this-the-future-of-search/ - l0ckergn0me
I fear spammers. - l0ckergn0me
I certainly hope that does not occur, or I'm with l0ckergn0me too. - mokargas
Interface is extremely comfortable... very gmail-y, reader-y, very digg/reddit/del.icio.us killer-y. - Hal
I think Google is trying to fit in the "WTF" or "Fail" pile. - Outsanity
I really hope Google doesn't do that. - Candace Holly
I'm not liking it because of where the link goes, but +1 on the comment :-) - Duncan Riley
@Duncan - it's Google meets Digg. That should be enough to cause serious fear. - Candace Holly
I actually kinda like this, but I'm thinking probably not as part of Google. A separate site would be better for this. - Matt Horton
Great: gaming, trolling, hate speech ... - Chris Baskind
Is This The Future Of Search? - Niklas Sjöström
Is This The Future Of Search? - Niklas Sjöström
I liked it the first time they called it Digg - adolfo foronda
Is This The Future Of Search? - Dieter Schwarz
i don't understand the logic of allowing people to vote items down, on DIGG or anywhere else. it just allows for gaming the system. if you only allow voting up, it's much harder to badly manipulate results - Alensa
everything that would add humane inteli. to the search results refinements (and therefor reduce SEO manipulations to minimum) will be great. - Naor
Instead of SEO manipulations we'll see marketing manipulations. - HollowMarkeD
Provided that spamming/gaming can be combatted this is a great idea. Think Mahalo with the restrictions: human search filtering but with all the rest of the results available as well. Not just an arbitrary selection based on limited opinion but a socially filtered list. It has big potential. - Colin Walker
I've been wondering how Google would approach social search, and it looks very interesting indeed - all the features I would expect seem to be in place...totally agree with all other comments re: gaming though! - Iain Baker
It looks useful and is a decent progression for search - jon
not happy about this.... a search engine should not be a democracy - Noah David Simon
I can't imagine this fully rolled out. Too much invested already in 'quality' returns - Charlie Anzman
err, this is just like Wikia search - from the founder of Wikipedia - http://re.search.wikia.com/ - Sherif Mansour

this works at a twitter or ff scale, but can it scale to Google search scale? Google already uses a popularity based system, this is just adding another popularity metric. - Brad Collins
Those who are afraid of socializing Google aren't seeing the potential. I programmed voting systems for a newspaper's website and discovered how easy it is using cookies and IP addresses to filter out abuse, or at least make it statistically insignificant. Just because you can vote something up or down for yourself doesn't mean the system has to factor that in for everyone. - µnauta
