Posted by: Lena Shaw on: January 22, 2010

This article truly embodies that which is the living web, with rapid growth of information sources, real-time content and conversation streams, users now seek alternatives to the traditional ways of navigating the web,  “results can often point you to blogs and other new sources of information that traditional search engines may have overlooked” said Kristin Burnham staff writer at CIO .

Excerpt from the article:

“Unlike traditional search engines, real-time search sites index updates from social communities such as Twitter, Delicious, Flickr and YouTube, providing you with a peek into the hot discussion topics on the Web…..Many of them have great, intuitive interfaces (like Thoora and Leapfish) and are customizable, to help you find exactly what you’re looking for, as it’s happening.”

It’s no surprise Leapfish is getting bigger, faster and better. They’ve been my search engine option for the past months.

Good job
