Hey Matt, Been waiting years for this, it's much appreciated.

Any plans to include Google Drive results too? I'm opted in to the Apps Search lab in Gmail, so it would nice if that applied to universal web search results too.

In case anyone is wondering, the "Apps Search" lab[0] in Gmail is described as follows:

  Extends search with Google Docs and Sites results.
  Apps Search will find the most relevant Docs and
  Sites and show them below Gmail search results.

Great point--Liz Gannes asked that question at the event, and the answer she got was that we'd like to explore offering things like Docs or calendar information as well. Gmail seemed like the best place to start for the field trial though in terms of useful information to surface.
