Google Social Search update, having your cake, US digital divide

You may start seeing more friends and colleagues in your search results as Google continues to take increasing notice of social media sites, expanding the Social Search feature it launched in 2009.

The company will now mix social search results throughout query results based on their relevance (in the past they only appeared at the bottom) and add notes for links people have shared on Twitter and other sites.

The expanded Social Search will be rolled out over the next couple of weeks, but only on Google.com and only in English for now (this video shows how it should work).
