Google (NSDQ: GOOG) News seems to be one of the most forward-thinking divisions within the company lately. The team announced that it was socializing news with the introduction of its new Facebook application.

The app allows people to track and read feeds, topics and keywords through a full canvas page. Readers can add notes, share with friends, as well as post stories on your profile.

While we’re all aware that this is an experimentation with news and social networks, I wonder if this experiment is more significant than simply porting news into a new channel.

It is an interesting approach and I would eventually love to see a profile-version of the app.
