Pulse may still be in fairly early stages of beta, but the pace of work to round out the feature set is feverish. This week's release has two key features that people have been asking for.
The first will be of interest to all of the users of the localized version of the service. If you speak Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Chinese, or Japanese, you can now build your network with localized versions of invites and connection requests. For those who've eagerly awaiting this capability, we appreciate your patience!
The second feature will ultimately be of interest to all Pulse users, but in the beginning will be most appreciated by folks who now have a large number of active Pulse users in their network, and who have amassed a large archive from their river of "lifestreams." (For example, I have over 1,000 pages of content that have come to me from family, friends, and folks in my business network.) The feature is Search, and it allows you to mine all that content, searching by keyword across all events and comments that have come your way. It's just our first release of Search, and there's a lot more to add, but already it's a big hit with power users.
Now, two more reasons to check your Pulse.
