Gary Price and Ryan Massie at BoingBoing and Digg. Ask has based its selections of sites for this treatment on the most popular feeds chosen by users of its RSS reader service, Ask Blogs & Feeds Search, that service looks through the postings made on blogs. Its features allow the searcher to preview a post's blog or site by doing a mouseover of the binoculars icon, when available.
From the blog and feed search results, dropdown menus for each result enable a couple of actions for the user. The Subscribe feature allows the visitor to quickly add a site to a selection of RSS reader services, like Bloglines or Google Reader.
Another option called Post To lets the searcher quickly add a search result as a post to sites like Digg, del.icio.us, or Reddit. Ask
