Web Searchers Search Around

Web Searchers Search Around 02/17/2004 01:15 PM
Despite conventional wisdom saying that people just use Google for their web searches, a new study suggests that web searchers are not particularly monogamous when it comes to searching. While, yes, most people do use Google, they're not afraid to use other search engines when necessary. Most people tend to use two different search engines on a regular basis. The study suggests that a better search engine doesn't necessarily need to worry so much about prying people away from Google. There's also a ton of people who don't use search at all (who are these people?) - and the study suggests that MSN and Yahoo might want to target these people. On the whole, I'd think that converting a Google searcher may be easier, though, than convincing someone who doesn't bother searching at all why they need to start using a search engine. Still, this does suggest some of the reasons why search engines are suddenly all talking about personalization features to make their search "sticky". If it's customized to you, the theory goes, you'll want to come back. The problem with that theory is that not everyone really wants customized search, and depending on how it's set up, it could end up annoying users more than helping them.

Almost all of the information in an enterprise is unstructured data -- existing in the form of HTML pages, documents in proprietary formats, paper and media objects, etc. As a result, enterprise search differs from Internet search in several important ways. First, on the Internet a user usually seeks the "best" or most relevant document -- whereas on an intranet a searcher is often looking for some specific document that she or he has seen in the past. Second, the Internet reflects the collective voice of many authors -- whereas an intranet typically reflects the view of the organization it serves (and so intranet content is created to disseminate information rather than attract and hold the attention of casual searchers). A third difference is that an Internet search engine is controlled and managed by one organization as a service -- whereas enterprise search software is licensed to and deployed by a variety of organizations in diverse environments, and imposes varying hardware constraints, software platforms, bandwidth, firewalls, heterogeneous content repositories, security models, document formats, user communities, interfaces, and geographic distribution.

DSL Providers Offer Wi-Fi as Lure

DSL Providers Offer Wi-Fi as Lure 07/06/2004 06:17 PM
DSL providers have gained on cable Internet marketshare; Wi-Fi is one lure: The Wall Street Journal reports that the efforts by Verizon, BellSouth, Qwest, and SBC coupled with reduced prices are paying off. More new broadband customers chose DSL over cable in 2004's first quarter. Cable companies are warming to the notion of Wi-Fi for intra-home sharing, however. Cable companies still trot out the "sharing Internet is like stealing cable" for connections shared beyond a home. It's clearly not. The law governing cable theft doesn't cover Internet sharing. It may certainly be a violation of the terms of service, and thus a reason for canceling a cable modem subscriber's account. But I sincerely doubt that a cable firm would win a prosecution under the cable theft laws which govern programming....
