Hi, I'm a long-term TaxoCop member interested in the 'other side' of taxonomy, i.e. search and browse. I like to use the term 'search and browse' because I ...
Well said Bob, nice to see you on this CoP as well and know that there are a few of us UK based subscribers. ... From: SearchCoP@yahoogroups.com To:...
Hi all - I've been a member of this community since shortly after Seth announce it on the TaxoCoP mailing list, and I was glad that he and Avi took the...
Hi all - First question for you all - does anyone out there have an effective mechanism for using web site metrics (page views or length of stay on specific...
Hi Lee, I have been thinking along these lines, too. I'd love to see if anyone is actually doing it! For search on our site (a b2b search engine and...
Thanks Lee. It was great to finally meet you in person. We'll look forward to your posts on the sessions. For those who could not attend, the conference was...
Welcome to the vocal part of the group, Lee! I've been trying to figure out how to auto-incorporate metrics for some time, with no luck. My main successes have...
To me, the question flows both ways. I think we treat browse / click analysis and search analysis as separate endeavors, and I claim this is a false...
Hi all, Just wanted to quickly introduce myself. I'm with Johnson & Johnson Pharma R&D in Raritan, NJ for 8 years now. I started in Pharma 17 years ago in...
Darn. Now that Karin snuffed me out of my lurker's bunker, I guess I'll have to introduce myself... ;-) Hi all, I'm an information architect who used to run...
Hi all - another question that was spurred by my attendance at the Enterprise Search Summit a few weeks back - are there any best practices or perhaps UI...
... I'm not aware of any published research on this feature, and would be interested in reading anything the group comes up with. However, if there are papers...
This is something that Lou Rosenfeld and I have pondered. We have not done any research on the point; however, we feel that the relevancy number is arbitrary...
Whitney Quesenbery did a study several years ago which included user narration and user-researcher conversations. No one could tell what the stars or other...
Hi again, everyone - Yet another question spurred by the Enterprise Search Summit for the group here - specifically for Avi as it was in a session she...
Loading up a pile of synonyms from somewhere else is not a good idea. With Ultraseek, we shipped an example synonym file with US/British equivalents, but that...
Walter, Do you have any thoughts as to how Google does spelling suggestions? I find that they are surprisingly good in general. I just searched for: walter...
Google has a nearly inconceivable amount of data, so their algorithms just don't work for most sites. They released some corpus data, extracted from over a...
As Walter says, I advise strongly against generic (non-domain-specific) synonym listings and fuzzy matching, because they increase retrieval so much, and...
Hello First I should introduce myself; my name's Sam Dimond and I manage the global knowledge systems for an international law firm, so this includes intranet,...
I think it's important to keep in mind that the average search consists of something like 1.0 to 2.5 words. That's like handing a note to a reference librarian...
Hi, I'm trying to find a good spellchecker I can use in web apps and a FAST ESP search. Stadman and Spellex - are paid spell checkers in that domain and seem ...
Have you tried using the spelltuner functionality in the ESP? After some tuning it's actually quite ok /Henrik On Wed, 28 Nov 2007 16:52 , schneider_karin...
Assume a company with a domain of acme.com. Assume they've got information on products, buy, support, and about. In terms of search engine visibility are they...
... I haven't found any hard evidence one way or the other. If you do a Web search for [seo subdomain subdirectory], you'll find many different opinions with...
That's basically what I was thinking - probably a question more for people focused on SEO activities (are there any here?) I would also imagine it will depend...
Hi there, I found an interesting comment at http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2007/11/anatomy-of-search-result.html Where the following comment was...
Well, this was asked of me by folks at a particular college at the university where I work. Without purporting to be an SEO type -- which I am not and do not...
