YourOpenBook: Hurry

May 16, 2010

Short honk: A happy quack to the reader who alerted me to a Facebook centric “finding” service. If you have some Facebook skeletons in your closet, you may want to gobble a Rennie before navigating to YourOpenBook. I ran some interesting queries but the goose will not reproduce those results. Fascinating body of content and a basic search engine. Powerful and thought provoking. Know your child’s Facebook name? Azure chip consultant under 30? Coworker? Enjoy before the service suffers an unexpected outage. Note: queries are now returning different results with each refresh.

QUICK ‘n’ DIRTY SURVEY – Would you guys (gals) be interested in an OFFICIAL “Fans of Apple” discussion forum?

Andreas,

I am not sure Beyond Search can do much in this department. Maybe Mark Zuckerberg or a similar luminary?

We created a Google Chrome extension just for this, the YourOpenBook Notifier. Give it a shot, it’s quite fun.
