Google is ending an experiment that let you annotate search results


They were kind of like Community Notes, but for Google.

Google is ending a months-old experiment that let people attach colorful notes to search results, the company confirmed to 9to5Google. “Search Labs is our testbed for bold experimentation and as we’ve shared, not all experiments will launch broadly,” a Google spokesperson told 9to5Google. We’re excited to continue testing new ways to connect people to authentic, relatable voices and look forward to bringing some of our learnings from Notes into future product experiences.”
