Abstract:
One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for augmenting a social snippet with an augmentation tagline. For example, a search user may submit a search query through a search interface (e.g., “algebra help” search query). An entity associated with the search query may be identified (e.g., a math professor). A set of taglines associated with the entity may be retrieved (e.g., descriptive information about the math professor extracted from social networks, documents, websites, etc.). A social snippet for the entity may be augmented with an augmentation tagline selected from the set of taglines or generated based upon information relating to the entity. The augmented social snippet may be displayed through the search interface, and the augmentation tagline may indicate a relevance of the entity to the search user (e.g., an indication that the math professor teaches algebra at a university attended by the search user).
