Search Suggest: Now Including Users!

It gets better. We’ve added search suggestions into the mix so you can see small summaries of ideas that might be related to your search query. And, for the first time, we’ve added user search into the suggestion mix so you can find friends and new connections alike.

Use the new “search suggest” feature to find users or ideas before you commit to a search.
