A student wants to buy a dress(essentially to look the best) for the prom at school. He/she would definitely want to take into account the suggestions that the fellow students might have though not all the times.<br /><br />Now if the same is done by google by taking into account what my other friends are buying, liking etc I don’t see much difference rather I would say google is helping me out.<br /><br />Hence I suggest probably google on its search page can have two views each supporting-- <br />1)Using suggestions and recommendations from friends<br /><br />2)Using the normal search engines with good ranking algorithms etc.<br /><br />I bet no one prefers to become a frog in the well and people are open to exploring new options too!!!Anujhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978978079795749883noreply@blogger.com
