Google search engine goes Web 2.0
Google search engine has started allowing users to tweak its search engine so that users can get the search results they would like to get. This is highly impressive and it will make searching in a specific domain much more accurate (e.g. Enterprise 2.0 or Web 2.0). However, I would say one of the pitfalls is that similar words but not related to the topic (Enterprise 2.0 or Web 2.0) might not return the results users might be looking for. I haven’t tested the new functionality extensively and I am not sure if Google has done something to tackle this potential issue.
Another big thing Google has done is to allow commenting on search results. This is a basic feature of many web 2.0 applications and even though the straight forward benefits of this might not be known now and there could potentially be abuse on such a tool, however, time will tell. Within weeks we could possibly get the initial results on how successful commenting on search results are.
This is very exciting.
