    Hi Keith: thanks for the post and the video:

    One quick note: feedly only integrates results if there is content matching the query published in the last 7 days by either one of your favorite sources or recommended by the people you follow or your friend of friends. These constraints reduce the probability of the overlay to happen but when it does the result should be better.

    It also means that people who have subscribe to more sources and follow more people have a higher chance to see the results (trying to find ways to reward people who invest time in following and sharing).

    As mentioned on he blog this is one of tree experiments we are doing around search “mash-ups” and we look forward to listening to what people think and how it could be evolved to add more value.

    Thank you!
    Edwin

    WOW, this must have been one of the great discovery I have made today. The mash-up with Google search is just so awesome. Thanks for sharing it with us and I’m pretty excited to see how it works myself.

Note: We discourage users from using keywords in their names while posting comments, most of them get caught by spam, also it really would be more fruitful in knowing people who comment by their real name, rather than by using a name no one relates to. In future we reserve the right to delete comments from users using a name other than their own.
