Dear AltSearchEngines readers,

It’s been a long wait, we know.

We’ve been very busy transforming uberVU into a product.

Here it is:www.ubervu.com

We’re hoping it’s way better, but can’t wait to hear from you.

Improvements:

* Search – you can now search for keywords and URLs instead of just adding URLs
* Way faster tracking – we track all the links on Twitter, Digg, Reddit and many more in close to real-time
* Analytics – you won’t read 1000 comments so we thought the big picture would help figure out where the buzz is at
* Public – we’re now in public beta, no invite code required to register

We hope you’ll like it; let us know by using the red feedback bar.

* what you like / don’t like
* what new features you’d like
* what you’re using us for

uberVU is an easy way to find and follow conversations, even if they take place across multiple sites and services.

The interesting stories you read on the Web don’t show you the whole picture. The conversation around them is missing. What people say about those stories is a great part of the picture.

The conversation around those stories takes place across many services. You might upload a video on YouTube that gets embedded in a blog post. That post gets comments and it gets posted on Twitter, where it also gets some replies. The Twitter post gets to FriendFeed where the conversation continues.

All of this is part of a single conversation, but you can’t see it because it’s trapped inside different services. That’s where uberVU comes in.

You can start by entering a keyword or the URL of a conversation that you are interested in. When you search for a keyword we don’t look for just for blog posts or twitter messages, we scan entire conversation threads to show you things in context.

So if you search for “keyword 1″ we may find a conversation that began with a blog post without any connection with “keyword 1″ but where people are discussing it in the comments or on FriendFeed.

Because uberVU gets reactions to stories from blogs, Twitter, Digg, FriendFeed, Disqus, YouTube and many more, we figure out the relationships between all those reactions. This allows us to provide you with more search depth than ever before.

Once you opened a thread you find the whole conversation in one single place. Oh, and did we mention that we also keep you up to date on how the conversation evolves? All you have to do is check uberVU for updates

No more searching a dozen services for mentions of a story, no more keeping track of all those people that commented on the story all over the web.
