hakia Toolbar Combines Search and Social Networking
We have updated our toolbar, the hakia ScoopBar, with a new feature: a shortcut button to hakia’s social networking platform “Meet Others who asked the same query.” The updated toolbar will now allow users to search the Web for information AND/OR search for others looking for the same information. This brings social networking and search one step closer.
A screenshot of an example is below. Please note that we combined two consecutive search screenshots in one.
On the left, the searcher typed “autism and vaccinations†in the hakia ScoopBar and clicked on “search” to access hakia Web search results. When the searcher clicks on a result link, hakia will automatically scroll to answer text in this Web page and highlight the answer text, thus cutting search time in half.
On the right, the searcher typed “autism and vaccinations†in the hakia ScoopBar and clicked on “Meet Others.†He/she was then immediately placed into a room where others have voluntarily posted comments about “autism and vaccinations.†The searcher can now connect to others without registration and with a single mouse click. Alternatively, he/she can post a message to the room to participate in the conversation.
