Searchles Tries to Bridge the Gap Between Social Search and Social Networking

Searchles

Searchles, the scaleable “social search” platform that lets you search by expertise and allows you to collaborate with your peers, has added new features. These new features allow you to strengthen your connections With Others based on “common or conflicting interests.”

These new features at Searchles combine the user-interactions of social networking sites with all the advantages of an integrated social search platform.

Essentially, the top rated content gets highlighted and allows further discussion–all within your of groups and friends. By adding more content and knowledge to your circle of friends, you’ll boost the efficiency of the social search engine that you’ve built from the ground up based on your activity on Searchles.

Searchles recenly pointed out that there are advantages to their technology:
- A robust built-in integrated social search engine enabling the users to find and friend others based on their interest by reviewing their postings, tag cloud (auto-generated based on postings), group membership, etc. Users are not merely listing out their interests next to their name; they are actively showing you their interests by posting the relevant content on our site.

- The user-controlled group functionality enabling you to invite or reject other users as you wish based on their postings or your interactions.

- Searchles Live!, gives you a snapshot of what’s happening within your circle of friends and groups — posting, commenting, messaging, rating, video channels, etc. It facilitates discussion and increases social interaction on Searchles as you comment back and forth with others.

If you use the my!Searchles page you’ll strengthen your connections with fellow Searchles users. Your connections will not only increase the exchange of relevant content, it will open the lines of communication between other users. It wil will also lead to a continual increase in the efficiency of the Searchles.
