What most alarms me about today's "Google Search Plus Your World" announcement is how it will distort name searches. When I Google someone's name, I'm typically looking for a Wikipedia entry, their Twitter account, a personal website, or an author page on their blog.Today, Google Search handles this well, often returning these as the top results. But *thanks* to Search Plus Your World, soon I'll see Google+ profiles more prominently even though they're rarely what I'm looking for.
