Google has rolled out a Facebook application that lets you share your search results with friends. The [new app][2] puts a Google search page in your Facebook account and whenever you search each result has a "Share" link next to it. 

By default your search queries are automatically included in your Facebook mini-feed so your friends can see what you've been looking up.

The new app makes use of Google's AJAX Search API, which we've [written about before][1].

Unfortunately, as of this writing, the new Google app appears to be broken. The app page has the usual warning for non-working Facebook apps -- "there are still a few kinks Facebook and the makers of Google are trying to iron out."
