It looks like Google has implemented a new “Note This� feature into the SERPS (Search Results Pages) over the weekend. The handy little feature allows you to quickly and easily take note of search results for later viewing within Google Notebook.

This could be a big blow for some of the social bookmarking services. Form a data mining point of view, this might be another key tool that could be used to identify the value of a page link or service.

    Hey Jason. You went four-for-four on your homepage there, with me! I found myself reading everything, (the Google Notebook story, the Poverty Tourism story, etc) AND listening to the song on You Tube! Well done. Can’t think of any reason not to join your MyBlogLog community now!

    The problem is that for the “note” to be worth anything you need to have been to the site. Noting search results will build up junk items faster than you can say “wow that was fast”. It will measure how well writtent he page title was from the catchy headline point of view but beyond that… I’m not sure man social bookmark providers will loose much sleep yet.
