Google Continues to Tweak Social Search Results

Google is testing a way to make social results a more prominent part in its search results, moving content that previously appeared at the bottom of its results page toward the top and adding friends’ names, where applicable, TechCrunch reported.

AllThingsD added that the social results that previously appeared as Nos. 9 and 10 on the list will be sprinkled throughout for logged-in users, and Google will give more weight to URLs shared as links by friends via social sites such as Twitter and Quora.
