Last week, Google rolled out a tool that will probably end HuffPo’s word games. If you’re a Google Chrome user, you can now remove all of the spammiest sites from your search results as you do your searches, with just a click.So to get rid of the Huffington Post from my search results, I Googled “Huffington Post.†HuffingtonPost.com (obviously) returned as the top result. With one click of the “Block†button that now appears next to search results, now I don’t have to see the site in searches again. No more accidentally-clicking inferior HuffPo content sitting in at “search result 1″ when “search result 2″ was what I was after. And if I ever want to click a Hot Air link to HuffPo? Can still do that. Site’s not blocked from being accessible. Just blocked from interfering.A couple quick notes: Google “blacklist†additions are immediately reflected as you remove sites. The extension then notifies Google of which sites you’re spamming out, which I suspect is to improve search results for others. (If you’ve never really liked the idea of Google tracking your searches, you may find this extension handy, too.)
