Google Social Search went live just 2 days ago. It might be confusing to some about how Google indexes its search results.
From the laymen point of view, Google Social Search pulls out relevant content created by the people in your online social circle and includes them into your search result.
The people that make up your social circle include the social sites you join (like Twitter and FriendFeed) and your gmail and Google contact groups. Therefore, to make the social search work, you have to be logged in to your gmail account.
