What is Google Social Search?
Google Social Search pulls together information from blogs and social networking sites about the topic you are searching on. What’s special about it, is that it pulls together information on that topics, posted by your contacts and friends. The purpose for this is that you are accessing information posted by people you already know, and trust.
How do you use Social Search?
To use Google Social Search you need to put in a tiny bit of effort first, before any related search results posted by your friends pop up. Next time you type something into the Google search bar, first make sure you’ve done the following to benefit from any know-how your contacts have posted online:
- Create your Google profile from plus.google.com
- Once you’re at Google Profiles, click on the blue button that says “create my profile”.
- Fill in the information requested, and link your profile to social media websites such as Facebook and Twitter.
- At the bottom of the page, you can complete the process.
Now that you have set up your Google Profile, you can view information posted by your friends next time you perform a Google search. What will show up depends on what you have added to your Google Profile.
