Finally! Google to Offer RSS Feeds for Web Search Results http://www.readwriteweb.com/archive...
Great, have been waiting for this - Lasse
Very cool. - Hutch Carpenter
A feature that probably will come in hand. :) - Bruno Miguel
I'm not clear how well a regular Google search feed will handle the chronological element of search feeds. That is, let's assume a search feed for "Kindle" will return the top 10 Google hits in a feed. Tomorrow, the top 10 results are likely to be exactly the same (how often to the top results for any given query change?). So what will a feed show? All new results (likely to be way more than 10)? Some mix of relevant new results? It's a tougher problem than it seems on the surface... - Josh Bancroft
@Josh, it sounds like it's based on the alert system, so it will be a list of new pages matching that query. So the search feed shouldn't return the top 10 google hits but the 10 newest hits. If it supports link: and site: it will be pretty cool. - Shawn McCollum
That is totally awesome! - Clay Newton
Great to know that. Would be a great feature! - Chetan Bhawani via FriendFeed MT Plugin
@jabancroft good point, i've been thinking about that too. what i think is: Isn't Friendfeed a search engine that delivers results in chronological order? the results it delivers are different than google's because its universe its different. it'll be interesting to see how FF's search offer evolves - Gabriel Aldamiz-echevarri
But will the results of the feed go past 1000? - Tanner Hobin via FriendFeed MT Plugin
I'd like not only site: and link: searches, but maps/local and google.co.uk but just plain old google.com will be a good start. - Andy Murdoch
That's good news. We already had Feedmysearch, which I tried but doesn't work (refer to my blog for the story). I love Google Alerts, but would like to read them in Google Reader. This will do the trick! - Samuel Driessen via FriendFeed MT Plugin
