OneRiot social search engine find the pulse of the We
OneRiot, the company formerly known as Me.dium, has launched OneRiot.com, a social search engine that crawls and indexes the pages viewed by OneRiot toolbar users. OneRiot the social search engine that finds the pulse of the Web. “Pulse” is a measure of several factors, including popularity of a page, video, news story or other type of content. The goal of the search engine is to create a realtime digg or reddit, where the most viewed sites on a topic rise to the top of the results. This makes OneRiot’s search results fresh, relevant, and pulsing with the real-time energy of the Web.
The site also allows you to browse using a tag directory, giving a categorized view of what’s available.If the search results are something the community is excited about, either of the three pulse indicator images shown below will be next to the results:
-Emerging
-Surging
-Raging
To search for the most popular web content, all you have to do is download OneRiot’s toolbar. The toolbar, once known as the Pulsechecker, can be found at the bottom right corner of your webpages. It is compatible with Internet Explorer and Firefox.

Thanks so much much for the write up! Quick clarification – you
don’t need a toolbar to search with OneRiot. Just go to http://www.OneRiot.com
and start searching!
If you _do_ decided to download a toolbar, you’ll join our community and help us find
even better search results than we have today. But that is not required at all.
If you have any more questions, got to http://www.oneriot.com/company/feedback
and drop us a note.
Many thanks. Tobias@OneRiot
