Besttechie Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Has anyone seen the new Google features -- SearchWiki? What do you think about them? Would you use them? I personally think it's an excellent idea to allow users to tailor their own results better for their needs. Of course, I think Google will aggregate all this data and use it, but I personally don't mind if it will make my searching more effective and allow me to find stuff easier. I wrote a small article on them here (with a screen shot included)http://www.besttechie.net/2008/11/20/googl...s-new-features/B Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDoors Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 The only addition I see on my Google Search Web tab is the addition of something-or-other about searching photo archives. What's your page look like? If I intend to get results from a wiki I usually go directly there and use their search box. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JDoors Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 I saw the pic but can't see how you got there, there's no "comment" thingy on my search pages. But then, through cookies I'm "recognized" by Google ("Welcome JDoors"), but I'm not officially "signed in," so maybe that's it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
