Not so long ago, OneRiot was introduced to an awesome company called WebMynd. WebMynd’s raison d’etre is search personalization, which translates as “make your normal forum for information seeking (Google) the place to find exactly the kind of information that you want.”
In order to live out this raison, WebMynd created a fantastic Firefox extension that works by pulling content related to your google search from other great sites. For example, want the social chatter on the inauguration at the same time as you get the Google stuff on it? Clickity click, VOILA - there’s the related twitter stream, right in your search results page.
Even with the full cache of personalization options that they had, WebMynd’s extension had yet to offer a way to see the most popular results on a search query. So, when the opportunity came around for OneRiot to do that job (a partnership that came out of the first ever Add-On-Con), of course we went for it. This is what came out of it.
…………………………..Go ahead, put the pulse in your googlies………………………..
