I'm not sure if Google gets this, but the interaction between social search and general keyword search is pretty small. As others have noted, I rarely want results for general searches from those in my social network. And when I do, I actually would prefer to specifically invoke it. And if anything, when I do a social search I want the opposite of what they're doing -- I want social info from Twitter/Facebook of public info from people NOT in my network. I feel Google is so concerned that they may be losing a monetization opportunity that they're screwing over their customer user experience. Google, your next billion dollar business is not Facebook or Twitter. And BTW, if Matt is reading, WTF is up with GMail using contextual information, even if I turn it off? This to me is a HUGE no no. Maybe I turned it off incorrectly, but if someone like me gets it wrong, the mechanism to turn it off is broken.
