This will definitely add a significant amoutn of money to Google's money pool. It will add such a large amount of more traffic just from all the hype and word of mouth of the new button on the most popular search engine in the world.
ReplyDeleteI am surprised they hadn't come up with this idea before now. It will make navigating the websites much more efficient.

ReplyDeleteGoogle is always trying to make a better engine for its customers. This feature will streamline searches and make the engine more responsive.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of this button. I would be helpful considering i do all my searches on google and when im looking for accurate information quickly, it would be nice to find the page that people have already rated as useful. The competive world of technology is always expanding!
