another new feature! when you make an "ask" on pi, you'll now see a couple of related (existing) recs that will show up immediately you can think of this as a live search-- make an ask and you'll get recs from the archive AND real people can answer live... can google do this? noooope! these auto results below are for sarajmedina's ask looking for bars in berlin (will be on the mobile app shortly)
