Search on conversations
Very soon, we will be able to ask Search a very basic and extraordinarily important question that I can best summarize as this: What are people saying about (my query) right now?
John Battelle wrote a post where he talks about a new evolution of Search, where the system would return everything that people are saying about the “topic” of your search. A search engine that can let you search the conversations that are happening on the web - realtime. A search engine that can inform you about interactions of your social network with what you are searching for (e.g. Canon EOS camera).
Where is that Search engine? Is it an extension of BackType or much more than that?
