OneRiot Announces $7 Million Funding

Commonwealth Capital Ventures, Appian Ventures and Spark Capital Invest in
OneRiot Realtime Web Search

BOULDER, Colo. and SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- OneRiot, the
realtime search engine, today announced that it has secured $7 million in
Series C funding led by Appian Ventures, Commonwealth Capital Ventures and
Spark Capital, the company's existing venture capital firms.

OneRiot delivers realtime web search results to millions of users, both at
OneRiot.com and to third parties who utilize OneRiot's Search API. The company
will use proceeds of this funding to further enhance its core search product
and to support its fast-growing partner network.

"This commitment from our existing investors is a big vote of confidence in
the realtime search market, OneRiot's product offering, and our team's ability
to execute," said Kimbal Musk, OneRiot's CEO.

OneRiot's partners include Yahoo and Microsoft, who recently released a
version of Internet Explorer bundled with OneRiot realtime search.

OneRiot launched in November 2008. It helps users find the news, stories and
videos that are most relevant to people right now. Search results are ordered
using OneRiot's PulseRank algorithm - a PageRank for the realtime web.
PulseRank reflects the current social buzz associated with any content on the
web. OneRiot indexes web pages that are shared in realtime by users on social
services such as Twitter and Digg. In addition, OneRiot manages its own panel
of 3 million users who have opted in to share realtime information with the
service.

"Increasingly, the web's most relevant content is what our friends and other
people are talking about, sharing and looking at right now," said Musk. "Using
OneRiot people can find that content in realtime."
