TL;DR - We've launched a new type of social search with <a href="http://trunk.ly" rel="nofollow">http://trunk.ly</a>, where you can search a group of people (experts if you like) that you follow for the information they share online.<p>That title is a call back to an article we posted here on HN just before Christmas inviting you to our beta <a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2014567" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2014567</a> The HN community feedback helped push us to throw open the doors and make Trunk.ly live.<p>Over the last three months, Trunk.ly has continued to grow steadily, attracting new users and we've been thinking a lot about how people use the site and what we can do to significantly improve it.<p>So introducing the new <a href="http://trunk.ly" rel="nofollow">http://trunk.ly</a> - with improved social search.<p>Now the site not only has personal utility for you (by collecting links where ever and however you share them across the internet, then indexing them so you have a "personal google" of content you like), but you can now search the people and their links on Trunk.ly too.<p>Our observation was that one of the things that people do when they publicly share content, is express an interest or expertise. If you're a Python programmer, you probably share lots of Python links, and more importantly, you only share the links that you think are worthy of some attention. So why not enable a search that lets you tap that knowledge?<p>We did and it's now live - love to hear your thoughts and feedback. Would you use it? What else would be useful as a search experience and content discovery from people you follow?<p>Thanks!
