The Next Web says Taptu has found Google’s Achilles heel
Last week, Ernst-Jan Pfauth, editor in chief at The Next Web, interviewed Steve, our CEO, asking some very interesting questions about the mobile social search, wondering whether we were bonkers for seemingly going against Google, the giant of search.
After interviewing Ives and trying out the service myself, I can say that Taptu has found Google’s Achilles heel. Mobile social search is one of those ideas that seem obvious after somebody explained to you – just like Paul Arden’s books. The service is still in early beta, yet when Ives tells about his ambitious plan, I truly believe he can achieve them.
Since launching the new features a few weeks ago, many new users have echoed Ernst-Jan’s thoughts, and it’s truly great to hear it. Without you, our users, we’d just be this mad David against the Goliaths of Search. But with you, we can be mad and daring together. So thank you!

Seems like a cool idea, im excited for when phones have the same computing power as computers.
