CiL Session Summary — Trends in Search and Search Engines
Presented By Joan Goodbody and Laura Hjerpe
1. Human Powered Search
Using human intervention.
Human Powered + Social Web = Real Time Search
2. Semantic Search
works best with deep web to get best results.
3. Federated Search
4. Vertical Search
Domain-specific search, part of a larger sub-grouping known as “specialized” search. Some overlap with Federated search.
This is so far beyond my knowledge of the Internet (which I need to know better) that I’m going to have to come back here and try out some of these sites. Many I’ve never heard of!
