Google is adding some very interesting features for people who are signed into their accounts. I don’t know if I am just a day late and a dollar short, or if there is something really new going on.

Today while I was obsessively checking positions for my main keywords, I happened to be logged into one of my Google accounts. What was interesting was that I saw a new link (or new to me) that said “Note this”. So - I did. And this dialog box showed up where I could add comments to the site that I had clicked on. Then it changed the “Note this” to say “Duly noted.”

Interesting.

Then it got more interesting. I saw where Google was showing the date and/or time and number of times that I had followed a specific link.

I was intrigued.

I logged out to see if the numbers were still there. No, they weren’t. So I logged into another one of my accounts (why have just one when more is better?). The numbers were gone from my previous account sign in. I wanted to replicate it. Clicking away, I found that the references were then GONE.

So, am I  being targeted? Is one of my many Google personalities being profiled? And does this mean that part of my split personality will start seeing personalized results?

Also, what is the SEO impact of “Noting this” - and what about the comments I can type in about the URL I have “duly noted?”

It’s obviously tagging… but what will it mean to me as a search engine user and to me as a search engine optimizer?
