I was surprised to head over to Google today and see on their blog that they have released Google SearchWiki. Why? Well, I really like Google’s Search product, as is. In fact, I just switched over from Yahoo to Google about a year ago.
The switch could be interesting anyway. As Google states:
“Today we’re launching SearchWiki, a way for you to 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. SearchWiki is available to signed-in Google users. We store your changes in your Google Account. If you are wondering if you are signed in, you can always check by noting if your username appears in the upper right-hand side of the page.
The changes you make only affect your own searches. But SearchWiki also is a great way to share your insights with other searchers. You can see how the community has collectively edited the search results by clicking on the “See all notes for this SearchWiki” link.”
OK, I’m all for Web 2.0 but at least TechCrunch seems to agree with me on this. Maybe it will grow on me.

does anybody think that this brand new search option from google will change the way websites are ranked within google? I wonder if this will change the way results are displayed for large/profitable keywords very much? i found an overview of how the google searchwiki works at http://www.thesearchwiki.com for anybody who has not seen what the new google search results look like with searchwiki.
