Google Social Search Disappears

Google Social Search, launched in late October as an experimental way to combine your social networks with Google’s (Google) search results, has mysteriously disappeared today.

When trying the service, we’re greeted with the message: “The experiment you’re trying to access is no longer available. Go to experiments overview”.

Pulling the feature so soon after launch would be unusual, given that social networking is clearly a large part of search’s future development. One possibility is that Google has decided to take another approach to bringing social networks to search. A more likely explanation, given that it’s a weekend: the feature has erroneously disappeared and Google’s staff have yet to catch the issue.

We’re putting an email in to Google and we’ll update when we have more information.
