That would be visual noise, there's more useful information to show if you want to increase visual overhead, such as the WOT extension icons

- 0-_-0 6y agoWell I very strongly disagree that it would be visual noise. For me the priorities are: 1. website name so I can recongize it 2. page speed 3. page date .... 476. excerpt from the page text. I consider the excerpt to be useless visual noise almost always, the page speed would be much more useful for me.

- 0-_-0 6y agoThat's why I said "almost always", because almost always I don't search for acronyms.
- mcv 6y agoIt doesn't have to be visual noise; it can just be hidden away in some personal preferences setting. That means most people would use Google's default settings, but it would be nice if you could override that. Google likes to attach your searches to your account, doesn't it? This means they should be able to personalise your search results based on your own preferences. It's weird that they don't do that.
