Google has quietly enabled tags to My Search History, as reported by Inside Google.
I guess what I need is more like Del.icio.us functionality, though. The current mechanism does support bookmarking and tagging of Google search results, like this:
The tagging is ok, but using the mouse click of the star to denote bookmarking is kind of off. I would rather have a more obvious "bookmark" text field to click on, or an icon that looks like a bookmark. The editing in place is interesting, but obviously Ajax hasn't been used throughout, because there are various points when screen refresh takes place.
Most obviously missing: integration with groups or the public. I want to share my bookmarks, and search is destined to be a shared space. Integration with Google contacts and groups should be next. And I need a bookmarklet so I can bookmark random locations, not just those I have found through Google. Is that hiding somewhere that I can't see?
