George Siemens points to this new service from Google, personalized search. I'll link to some reviews as they come in. I did fill out the profile, which seems (I guess) to store as a cookie. One odd thing - you cannot select Canada or Mexico as a region: you can select any continent but North America, and North American listing are comprised of U.S. states only. Weird. Tried a search - and the 'personalize' slidebar is something else. Fascinating. But what was really odd (because I searched on 'Downes', naturally) is that when I set 'personalize' to maximum, my own web page dropped from the top of the list right off the results completely. It's like the anti-personalize or something.
