Abstract:
Implementations of the present disclosure include actions of receiving a search query, identifying potential search results responsive to the search query, the potential search results corresponding to digital content stored in one or more computer-readable storage media, determining that the potential search results include user-generated content that is generated using one or more computer-implemented social services, receiving data associated with the user-generated content, the data including one or more scores, determining, based on the one or more scores, that the user-generated content is to be provided as a search result, generating search results, the search results including web-based search results and at least a portion of the user-generated content, and transmitting the search results to a client computing device for display to the searching user.

Abstract:
Techniques for customizing search may include the following operations: outputting, to a computing device of a user, a Web page that enables selection of signals that are usable to generate search results; during a search session, receiving, through the Web page, a query and a selection corresponding to one or more of the signals, where the selection differs from a default set of search signals used by the search system for searching; obtaining, for output to the computing device, search results that are based on the query and the selection; and following the search session, configuring the search system to use the default set of search signals for searching.
Abstract:
Techniques for presenting using-generated content in search results may include the following operations: receiving a search query from a computing device of a user; obtaining search results responsive to the search query, where the search results correspond to digital content stored in one or more computer-readable storage media, and where at least some of the search results correspond to content that is user-generated; generating data for the search results, where the data is for displaying at least some information relating to the user-generated content along with search results other than the user-generated content; and transmitting the data to the computing device for generating a display of the search results in accordance with the data.

Abstract:
Systems for displaying social content in search results may include receiving an input query for a subject; determining that the input query is a navigational query; identifying a first page on a social network for the subject; obtaining content from the first page; obtaining search results corresponding to the input query; identifying a second page for the subject from among the search results, where the second page is represented in the search results by a snippet of content associated with the second page; combining the content from the first page with the snippet to thereby produce combined content; and outputting data corresponding to the combined content.
