Ohio needs to unite the 3 C's and dominate tech, healthcare and insurance, there is so much talent and a little capital goes a really long way.

I'm a product manager working on code.you.com. This is good feedback and an interesting suggestion. We'll work on adding those special characters, variables and casing to make the search better for coding.

We're just getting started but working really hard to make this something special. There is a fairly active slack community if you have any other suggestions and want to share. thx.

Social search has been attempted so many times.

Google tried it in 2009, failed. Microsoft tried it in 2013, failed. Startups across the board have tried it.

I think it is because "social" usually implies to a user that they are searching for a person, not the content they create. And previously, there wasn't a ton of UGC that was relevant to a query.

Disclaimer: I'm a You.com employee working on search.

This is one of the reasons I love working for You.com.

SEO is killing Google and it needs to be addressed before it kills the internet. Having the opportunity to build an app that solves a search, instead of perpetuating a spam system, has been really rewarding... and we're just getting started.

SEO is dead. Nothing matters anymore except personalized SERP.
