aware that Google isn't the only search engine out there, by any
manner or means, and although many people regard it as the biggest and
the best, this certainly isn't the case for those organisations who
decide that they want a share of the search engine market.

Microsoft : what is next for search

08/30/2004 03:44 PMThis week's edition of
The Economist has an interesting piece
in its technology section on search engines. Thankfully, not another
critique of Google / its recent IPO, but at what we might expect of
tomorrow’s search engines. The article talks about research, done by
Microsoft, into search engines that can answer questions.
A very simplistic example of how the technology works is this. Imagine
a search engine homepage with a text box, allowing you to pose any
question - e.g. the question "When was Neowin founded?". The
search engine computers would then take the phrase, break it down and
manipulate it (in terms of structure, tense etc) and then run a search
on that data. The search engine would then return a list of the
results; more intelligent engines could discard many (e.g.
"never" would be discarded) of the results and leave the
users with a list of possible answers (e.g. 4).
The technology is still a prototype, and is currently called 'Ask MSR'
(MS Research).
Bink has a collection of links and papers by MS
researchers on the topic. Technologies like these give search engines
the edge, if, and it's a big if, they work well. Dr Brill, researcher
working on the system, wants to develop something that might give a
fifty word answer to your question (view his research paper -
PDF |
HTML). The Economist notes that the system works
~40% of the time; not bad, but still needing work.

Search Engines -- The Future
Search Engines -- The Future
04/13/2004 06:11 AMSearch Engines -- The Future by Gary H. Antheshttp://snipurl.com/5o0uMost information junkies would be hard-pressed to name
anything that has transformed their professional lives as much as
Internet search engines have. The miraculous devices can take your hot
topic of the day, scan millions of Web pages and in seconds bring back
product announcements, research papers, the names of experts and
more—things that would be difficult or impossible to find otherwise.
But as powerful as they are, search engines have huge weaknesses. For
example, a recent Google search on the word Linux took just 0.4
seconds, but it had 95 million hits. Too bad if the one you need is
No. 10,000 on the list. But researchers are poised to revolutionize
search technology over the next few years.

Manipulating Search Engines
Manipulating Search Engines
03/19/2005 02:23 AMWired has a great article online about Greg
Boser who gets paid to make your website rank higher in the search
engine results. We all know that it’s not as easy to change
rankings as it was 10 years ago, but it still can be done. He
get’s most of his clients through speaking engagements and gets
paid on the results he gets. As he says in the article, “We make
lot more money doing this.” here is some of the comments about
search engines and manipulating them he had to say…
"I could create a blank page without a keyword anywhere
present, or a 404 error message, and if I can get enough sites to link
to it, I could get it to place first on Google," Boser said. But it's
not just quantity, it's quality. Theoretically, Boser could have five
inbound links and end up as the No. 1 result -- provided they
originated from mega sites like Yahoo and MSN. Barring that, 5,000
links from cheesy guest books, online diaries, blogs, zany products,
porn sites and anyone who honors link exchanges might do the
trick… There are other techniques
designed to fool search engines. One consists of cloaking pages by
hiding text in website backgrounds in a way that users won't see but
that targets Google's ranking technology. Another method is link spam,
aka "blog comment spam," in which automated bots plaster ads with
return links on the comments pages of blogs. Most common are ads for
pills, porn and casinos. Finally, there is "search spam," which are
machine-generated pages designed to appear in the engines to attract
traffic (and ultimately increase revenue).
