Abstract: One or more computer devices may receive a document from private content that is accessible by a set of users, and may extract metadata from the document. The metadata may provide information relating to one or more aspects of the document. The one or more computer devices may determine, based on the metadata, whether a portion of the document includes information that is only to be accessible by a particular user from the set of users, and may append a restrict indicator to the metadata when the portion of the document includes information that is only to be accessible by the particular user. The restrict indicator may identify the particular user and the portion of the document. The one or more computer devices may store the metadata and the restrict indicator in a personal search index.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for annotating search results. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a search query from a user, the user having a plurality of social affinity groups, each social affinity group identifying a group of users and the user as a proper subset of users of a network. The method includes receiving search results responsive to the search query, each search result referencing a resource. The method includes identifying a search result referencing a resource having an association with one or more of the social affinity groups. The method includes annotating the search result, the annotation describing the association of one of the social affinity groups with the resource, and further identifying the social affinity group. The method includes presenting the annotated search result to the user.

Abstract: Techniques for using social networking information may include making a determination that content authored by a first party references a second party more than a specified number of times. An adjustment in affinity may be made between the first party and the second party in the social network in response to the determination. Making the adjustment in affinity may include modifying a social graph of at least the first party that is referenced by the social network in order to reflect the adjustment in affinity. Modifying the social graph includes creating a closer connection between the first party and the second party than had existed prior to the determination. In response to the adjustment in the affinity, promotion is adjusted, to the first party, of content in the social network that has a connection to the second party.

Abstract: Techniques for inferring social affinity may include the following operations: obtaining information derived from online activity of a first party, where the online activity includes searches initiated by the first party, and where the information specifies interaction of the first party with content accessed through the online activity; determining, based on the information, that an amount of the interaction of the first party with the content exceeds a threshold; following the determining, identifying a second party who provided the content; adjusting, in a social graph for the first party, an affinity of the second party to the first party based on the amount of the interaction with the content; and using the affinity to promote search results output to the first party that contain content that is provided by the second party.

Abstract: This specification describes technologies relating to searching. In general, aspects of the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in methods that include the actions of receiving, at a computing device, a search query from a user, receiving, at the computing device, search results responsive to the search query, the search results each associated with digital content stored in one or more computer-readable storage media, determining that a first search result of the search results is associated with a first endorsement generated by a first user, determining that the first user is a member of a social graph of the user, and transmitting instructions to display the search results to the user, the instructions including instructions to display a first endorsement annotation associated with the first search result.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for receiving a query initial input from a user, in response to receiving the query initial input, determining a set of personalized query suggestions based on the query initial input, the set of personalized query suggestions including one or more content-based query suggestions that reflect at least one of user data associated with the user within one or more computer-implemented services and use of the one or more computer-implemented services by the user, and transmitting instructions to display the set of personalized query suggestions to the user.
