Facebook apps seem to be multiplying faster than blogs these days but the community has been lacking a good search engine for these applications. Clever Hippo is a great new site designed to make searching Facebook apps quick and easy.
On Clever Hippo, Facebook users can search a database of the over 1,000 apps already created as well as new ones being added everyday. On Clever Hippo, users can search for a term and narrow the results by daily active users, percent of active users, or most recently added. Searches are also refined by “or” and “not” strings as well as boosting which places emphasis on one search word in comparison to the others. The results are displayed in an organized and clear fashion and apps can be magnified for better viewing, or the search can be modified. There is already an app search on Facebook, but the team at Clever Hippo explains that with their service users can refine searches and find out which apps are most popular in the community.
CleverHippo.org In Their Own Words
“Clever Hippo is a search engine for Facebook Apps. Our mission is to make it easier for Facebook users to find cool applications. There’s lots of interesting stuff out there but it’s not always easy to find exactly what you want. With the introduction of the Clever Hippo application search, users can search the thousands of Facebook applications already out there as well as the new apps added daily.”
Why CleverHippo.org It Might Be A Killer
This site is a big help to the Facebook community but more so to the creators of the applications. There are so many apps that pop-up on the Facebook scene, that most are over-looked. Now, apps have a chance to grow and gain popularity even if the first release was not very successful.
