Google is adding a personalised Facebook-style news feed to its homepage – Google.com -to show users content they may be interested in before they search.<\/p>\n
It will display news stories, features, videos and music chosen on the basis of previous searches by the same user.<\/p>\n
Users will also be able to click a “follow” button on search results to add topics of interest to their feed.<\/p>\n
One analyst said the move would help Google compete with rivals.<\/p>\n
“Google has a strong incentive to make search as useful as possible,” said Mattia Littunen, a senior research analyst at Enders Analysis.<\/p>\n
“Facebook’s news feed is one of its main rivals. It is competing with other ways of accessing content.”<\/p>\n
