Every wondered what’s being said out there…?
Spy can listen in on the social media conversations you’re interested in. Type in a word or phrase (’snow london’ entered in the example above) and let it search Twitter, Flickr, Blogs, FriendFeed and others to deliver an interesting snapshot of current dialogue taking place.
Pipl - the people search engine
When we think of search, we think of Google. But even Google has limitations to what it can find. Take people for example, it’ll return a list of indexed results containing names or relevant details, but these are not specific and are often mixed amongst totally un-people related results. Enter Pipl which has just overtaken Spock (the former default people search engine) in ComScore’s December numbers.
It’s pretty scary as to what it can find - see image above. One search under my name brought back a table of images with 3 of the 19 being me. Big brother is watching.
