Show HN: Search and browse About sections of HN profiles
- DanielRibeiro 14y agoYou can actually use HNSearch for that[1]. Which is one of the things I've used to create HNWho a few years ago: http://www.hnwho.com/ http://www.hnwho.com/ But I really like this design though.

- raimonds 14y agoOops! Shame on me. Somehow I completely missed native HNSearch interface for users. Nice work with www.hnwho.com btw! Very useful.
- pbiggar 14y agoNice. I'll be using this for hiring!
- raimonds 14y agoDon't tell recruiters about it!
- JacobAldridge 14y agoNice - I used this to search my current city.

- raimonds 14y agoHi! Thanks for your feedback! Great suggestion!
- guptaneil 14y agoIt would be nice to be able to search for parts of words. For example, typing "metamorphium" isn't enough to bring up my profile. I have to type the full "metamorphium.com"
- raimonds 14y agoHi! You can use asterisks like this: *morphium*
