Video interview with Scoble featured on IdeasProject, Nokia's website, which helps users find connections between thought leaders and their "big ideas" about the future of communications
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) July 7, 2009 -- Blogger Robert Scoble (scobleizer.com) says the refinement of search-capability, being done by himself and others to monitor trends in the aggregation of real-time social Web data, will make it possible for individuals to obtain a stream of desired information based on personal preferences. Scoble believes this development will have similar game-changing implications for users of social media applications such as Facebook.
A video interview with Scoble discussing the significance of advanced social search is featured on IdeasProject, a unique website developed by Nokia. IdeasProject is an online "information space" that provides a new way to interact with thought leaders and their big ideas about the future of connected communications.

"New extremely powerful tools are coming out enabling you to build specific, advanced searches that can help you identify patterns of usage and review what people are saying around a specific topic," said Scoble. "I feel something is just about to happen that will make it possible for you to tell this world, I'm interested in "X" and have a stream of "X" come at you."
"Scoble is one of the earliest adopters of social media technology," said Valerie Buckingham, Director of Technology Marketing, Nokia. "With his latest creation, Building43, Scoble is channeling the power of the Web to further advance Web 2.0 and expand sharing capabilities. For Scoble, social search is the most significant advancement in the industry since Google. We look forward to sharing more of Scoble's provocative thoughts on the power of social media's evolving search features on IdeasProject."
