Google is making web search more easy and social, weaving post from Twitter, blogger, flickr and other accounts of use's friends into search results.
The move is an expansion of google social search which the "internet giant" introduced in 2009.
Instead of featuring at the bottom of page of search results, relevant posts from social media of accounts of user's friends are integrated into the list of results themselves.
A goolge search for campaign, for example may bring up twitter posts by a friend about hiking trails or a link to campsite pictures uplaoded by a friend to flickr.
Social search will be available for only to whom those who have google account.
Google account holders may also have a option of linking their social media account to their google profiles.
Google said that new social search feature is available in english for the moment.
It will also not display any input from the largest social network of them all --Facebook -- which has previously declined to share data with google.
