The search engine giant, Google is purposing to launch a new feature by which users will be able to leave comments in search results that could be seen by others.

According to the Search Engine Journal reports, the feature is not yet live but an official Google help document has described how it would work.

The feature will bring to Google Search certain features commonly found on social media platforms. Users will not only be able to read comments left by others, but they will also be able to "like" or "dislike" their comments on Google search results.

This new feature will allow users to add comments during live sports games but the comments will, however, be subjected to Google's policies for content posted by users on Search. 

"Comments that don't follow the policies might not be shown," stated the Google help document.

"Your comments are public, so anyone can see what you write. The name on your About me page shows with your comments. You can't add an anonymous comment," it added.

This means that the uses will have to log-in to leave comments on search results, by which users will also be able to delete their comments.
