Search Engine Wars Redux

If you’re interested in what’s happening in the search arena, please check out my latest article Search Engine Wars Redux in my Stacking the Tech column in LJ’s Academic Newswire.

“As the content of the Web continues to grow, we are seeing search engines and other similar services competing to serve our retrieval needs. To access the vast content stores of the read/write Web, these search tools make use of structured and linked data, real-time search, personalization, and more focused filtering techniques. If you’re a fan of buzzwords, you might say we’ve entered Web 3.0, a new era that is motivated by the need to more effectively organize, filter, and access information online.”

    Yahoo released a notepad as part of their search options recently. Looks like filtering and collecting info will be important parts of search.
