[Search-l] User inputs for Google functionality

[Justin Senseney]

Hey all-

Not sure if you've seen this yet, but it just came up when signed into my
Google account.  After the last search result, it said:
-------------------------------------------

<http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Salt+of+the+Earth&btnG=Google+Search#>
[image:
Plus] Know of a better webpage for *Salt of the Earth*?  Suggest
one.<http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Salt+of+the+Earth&btnG=Google+Search#>Recommend
a better webpage that you'd like to see the next time you search for *Salt
of the Earth*.  {"Preview" button}
---------------------

I then inputted my choice and it gave me the following:

----------------------

Here is a preview of your suggestion for *Salt of the Earth*:

   Salt of the Earth - Wikipedia, the free
encyclopedia<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_of_the_Earth>
   Salt of the Earth. Video Cover. Directed by, Herbert J. Biberman.
   Produced by,
   Paul Jarrico Sonja Dahl Biberman Adolfo Barela. Written by, Michael
   Wilson *...*
   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_of_the_Earth

The highlights that this is a result that you suggested.

    or...if you want to edit it, just hit the back button.

 If you click yes, we'll save this suggestion with your Google
Account<https://www.google.com/accounts/>so we can use it to improve
your search results. This is an experimental
feature and, based on this experiment, we may come up with other
improvements in the future. Like all data in your Account, your suggestions
are subject to our Privacy Policy<http://www.google.com/intl/en/privacy.html>.
If you want to delete one of the suggestions from your account, just repeat
your search and click next to the saved result.
-----------------------------------------------

Note that Google's original results gave me the disambig-page "Salt of the
earth" so I suggested the movie "Salt of the Earth."  Interesting start at
social search from Google.
