Nsyght - Social Search Beta released

Nsyght_beta The guys over at nsyght have been burning the midnight oil... they released a beta version of the social search engine today, and techcrunch has a full blown review.

As Mike points out on the UK site:

This tiny boostrapped startup from West London wants to take your bookmarks and social network and use that to create more relevant search results. The idea is that, over time,a user will have a totally custom-built search index specific to them and their tastes...

...Try a search on “iPhone development” across Wikia, Nsyght and Google. Nsyght comes off pretty well - and they don’t have anywhere close to Wikia’s funding.

In my experience, I would agree- a search like iphone development will give you good results (pretty much any early adopter/geek search will yield better results than Google, et al.) If you haven't taken time to test "social driven search", now's the time to do so...
