DuckDuckGo Now Uses AskSteem to Search the Blockchain

Hello Steemians!
Today I'd like to announce that [DuckDuckGo](https://duckduckgo.com), the popular privacy-focused search engine, now uses [AskSteem](https://www.asksteem.com) by default to search the STEEM Blockchain. 

# How to Use
https://i.imgur.com/Usg0Cer.gif

# What is AskSteem
AskSteem is a search engine that indexes the STEEM blockchain and provides a powerful, reliable, and intuitive way for our users to search for posts or users.

We also provide a [Search API](https://github.com/Hoxly/asksteem-docs/wiki) which is used by some of the largest STEEM based apps and we are continuously working to make our products better.

Happy searching!

Fantastic! And since I'm using duckduckgo as my default search engine anyway with Brave, I can now search steemit right from my browser any time.

@thekyle Just used asksteem and looks great. We are working on a product on Steem blockchain and would like to know the details of API and how we can integrate. 

I am also curious if you are able to cover your costs from the rewards on your posts?
