The latest iteration of Google search, http://www2.sandbox.google.com/, is now available for general testing. The speed with which suggested search terms are returned is genuinely impressive, but are google now being held back by their approach to treating all information equally? I would find the results so much more useful if they were categorised in some way, identifying those results which were created by individuals in social spaces for example, as in many instances, that is what I am now looking for. It would be great to see the results grouped around social content, as they do for images for example, and then able to filter by type, for example reviews, microblogs, or bookmarks.
I often find myelf adapting the search terms I am using to try and identify user generated content (add "review" or "blog" to search term for example). So Google, it would be greate if you could help me out here, and use this amazing technology you are now demonstrating to bring back more than just suggested search terms, but content types and maybe indications of influence as well.
Thanks,
Ross
