This is a killer feature.
For other examples of seamless integration with search engine results checkout memex and evernote.

I just want to elaborate on my earlier suggestions with some graphics of how I imagine that these features could work.
For example, if you Google something that you've never bookmarked before, your search results would look like the first image below. Then, if you click on that link and eventually bookmark that page, ideally Raindropio would remember the Google search terms that brought you to that page and would add the terms to a special field for that bookmark (see second and third images).
Then, next time you search for something with similar terms, the page would show up at the top of the search results and the Raindropio logo would show up next to the link you had previously bookmarked (see fourth image).
Ideally, one could customize how the search results that show up at the top of Google are obtained including options like "Similar to Google Terms", "Similar to Title", "Similar to Description", "Similar to Page Content", and etc (see fifth image).

I agree with Damir, listing the top N best matching bookmarks at the top of the Google search results would make Raindrop.io much more practical. I often forget what I've previously bookmarked and don't think to search among my bookmarks first. Then I spend time finding a resource on Google only to see that I had previously bookmarked it.
Another software worth emulating is called Grepper (codegrepper.com). In Grepper, when you type coding questions in Google, you have the option of adding your own answer to the question once you've solved it. Then, next time you repeat a similar question, your answer shows up at the top of the page. It's also community-driven in that other people can see and vote on your answers and so on.
I think it would be super helpful if you could see your best-matching bookmarks at the top of the results when you search in Google. Ideally this web extension/tool would have the following options:
1) Ability to set how many of your bookmarks show up in the results.
2) Ability to toggle between loading best-matching bookmarks by matching the Google search terms against only the bookmark titles, their descriptions, their tags, their content, a custom field for adding the Google Search terms that helped you find the bookmark in the first place, or all fields.
3) Ability to click a link to the webpage itself or to the Raindropio bookmark in case you have notes about the webpage stored in Raindropio.
