SearchMash

Google has launched an unbranded, experimental site to test search features that could one day show up in its current online search engine.

The SearchMash homepage gives no indication that its from Google. To see the connection, one has to go the privacy page.

Is this a possible glimpse into the future of the Google algorithm? Something to keep your eyes on.

I am very curious about the ability to reorder search engine results. SearchMash says that while this feature is purely for fun at the moment, they do have some ideas in mind for it. What if Google were to record any reordering of results made by the user and then rank the default result revelancy based on how many users moved that particular site to the top of the page in their previous searches?

If implemented, that could completely revolutionise SEO and search engine algorithms by giving search engine users the key role in determining which sites are the most relevant for a particular query.
