Me.dium launches Social Search!
Yesterday evening we launched our Social Search engine (check it out: me.dium.com/search).
We're really excited about it. Over two million people have downloaded Me.dium to surf with their friends. With the combined activity of our user base, we've built the first Crowd-Powered search engine.

We are working with Yahoo to ensure that if we don't have results, you'll get Yahoo! quality results as a back-up. Many thanks to the Yahoo! search team who have been awesome to work with.
Rock on!
