Google Search and its "Search Plus Your World"

Google has been rolling out gradually and soon, search results will begin showing in its new "Search Plus Your World" format. In this new format, it finds both content that's been shared with you privately on Google+ along with matches from the public web, all mixed into a single set of listings.

From a Google blog post, three new features are introduced to make up the "Search Plus Your World"

1. Personal Results, which enable you to find information just for you, such as Google+ photos and posts—both your own and those shared specifically with you, that only you will be able to see on your results page;
2. Profiles in Search, both in autocomplete and results, which enable you to immediately find people you’re close to or might be interested in following; and,
3. People and Pages, which help you find people profiles and Google+ pages related to a specific topic or area of interest, and enable you to follow them with just a few clicks. Because behind most every query is a community.
