  • Search
    This is likely my last post in the Tool Set series. This post likely will be quite a bit different because I'm convinced that most people have used different search tools enough that they are pretty comfortable with their current search behaviors. My intent here is to possibly expand the options for the average knowledge worker to be able to search a bit better than they do today. This is by no means comprehensive and I welcome suggestions.

  • The New Value in the Web - the Archive - A New Approach to Search is Needed
    But all this knowledge is in reality locked up because it is too hard to find it. But what about Google? Google just scratches the surface of this immense ocean of knowledge. You have to know what you are searching for and it does not easily let you follow a thread of similar thoughts or to find others in the field who can add more. If this blog or even my own personal blog had a search tool that could enable you to find the many “Books” in them it would change the value of the site.

  • "Search Is A Pencil"
    I will never forget that quote , from Alta Vista founder Louis Monier, as he bemoaned the devolution of his creation into Yet Another Portal. He was devoted to the idea that Alta Vista would do one thing - search - and do it well. But Alta Vista was instead turned into a bawdy image of Yahoo, AOL, Lycos, Excite, and all the other portals of the late 90s.

  • Twitter as Search Engine or Community Seed
    Twitter as a search engine. This was interesting to me because I’m co-leading a short online workshop introducing social media in a global international development network. The question always comes up “why would we be interested in something like Twitter. One application I try to show is Twitter as social listening. But I never really conceptualized it as search.   So I thought I’d put it to the test. First, I searched for something for me. Chocolate , of course.

  • Applying Turing's Ideas to Search
    Q: How would you describe a sunset to a sightless person? A: The sun sets at the end of every day. Gotcha. The Turing Test and User Interfaces In December of 2006, while I was conducting usability testing of a search engine, it struck me that the Turing test has something important to teach us about interface design. It describes an ideal form of human-computer interaction in which people express their information needs in their own words, and the system understands and responds to their requests as another human being would .
