Google To Introduce Digg-Like Interface?
By Anna Johnson on July 18th, 2008Tech Crunch reports that a Digg-like interface – where users vote on search results – may be on the cards at Google.
Apparently, Google has previously experimented with allowing users to vote on search results and/or recommend other results. Its approach has been to “bucket” such tests by allowing a small, randomly chosen group of Google users to see and test proposed features.
Adrian Pike, the CTO of startup Tatango, is a member of the bucket testing the Digg-like Google interface. Tech Crunch reports that Mr Pike has tested an interface which enables users may vote and post comments on search results.
Sounds promising to me… but boy, will it change the search engine optimization game!
