Annoyed by Google's SearchWiki? Now you can turn it off.
Late last year, Google added the ability to customize search results by promoting or removing items. These "SearchWiki" features also let you share, comment on, and add results to a page.

If you're one of those people, you'll be glad to know there's now an item in Google preferences to turn off SearchWiki with one click.To do it, just go to http://www.google.com/preferences, or click the preferences link on Google.com, and check "Hide the ability to share, promote, remove, comment or add your own results." One click, no more arrows and X's next to every search result. If this is the first you're hearing of SearchWiki, check out our original post about it before you decide whether to turn it off.
