It would be nice to have a social search feature which can fetch feeds from your social network and serve them as a part of search results to one side. I have attached the patches. Sorry I couldn't get to convert it into a single patch. I have 3 patches in the attached compressed folder.

Thanks for your hard work Vijeth. There are a lot of places in your code that have strays tabs and spaces so don't meet Yioop coding standards. Also, there are several places where using rather than using the localization method you are directly using English strings. This looks like it will take some work to clean up, so I deferring merging until at least version 0.9.

Vijeth's code did not end up being used. Similar functionality was added and mainly debugged by 53f1d04
