Great work! I actually made something similar 15 years ago with a P2P social networking angle: You could hide/promote results based on your friends' reccomendations.

- davehcker 6y agoThis is very inspirational! Actually I have something similar in mind- 1. to allow subscribing to friend's or network's lists. and/or 2. Make it a 'window' to your search experience. So it's privacy focused personal/social logic that offers you Google or any search engine that way you prefer. I think PageRank is not enough (or may be too much) for me...
- dewey 6y agoThis is a really cool idea. I wish something like that would exist as a Pinboard Extension. Where it just decorates your search results with information about if your friends have it bookmarked, your tags or even blacklist domains if tagged as blacklist:domain or something on Pinboard by you or your friends. Would be a nice way to make use of that data.
