um, no
When the search goes wrong | |
You never intended to get that set of results, but you don't want
to rephrase the question. You would rather tell the search engine
that this result set is altogether off.
You press the [um, no] button, and all by itself, the search engine
will know how to find the other information that it
isnt showing
you right now, or perhaps is hidden in pages 77 to 103 of the
results.

Better would be an intermediate page that asks "Do you really want to search using that string ? nn% of those who used that string previously fell of their chair and experienced projectile vomiting. We suggest you search for "<better phrased and more appropriate term>". |
|
| |
This is better than "safe search" because it doesn't exclude any results; it just stops you accidentally finding out about things you afterwards very much wish you hadn't. |
|
| |
I think this makes sense - you might have it run at a page
level, clicking "um, no" setting all the results found on
that
page to be used as negative inputs to the next iteration of
the search. For more fine-tuned control, a checkbox on
each result would allow you to tune subsequent results. |
|
| |
This would be helpful when researching terms that have
unfortunate overlapping textual representations. |
|
| |
If a keen ornithologist were to search "great tits" for
example, they would surely be glad of such a feature to
confining their results to those containing hedgerow birds
only. |
|
| |
(I'm only marginally disappointed, having tried this out for
real, to find that the returned results are almost
exclusively for small birds) |
|
| |
>"unfortunate overlapping textual representations." that's
the phrase I was looking for. |
|
| |
I read kdf's remark as: "this reminds me of a half naked
idea" |
|
| |
The halfbakery, hot enough that half-naked ideas are stripped closer to the naked truth. |
|
| |
Searching for "shortly this site can't be reached then goes
to site" and getting only "how to fix this site can't be
reached" I realized that I want to make a chrome plugin
that does this. |
|
| |
Now I have to think over the other half. Wanna help me? |
|
| |
There's a "people also search for" plugin that finds and
shows you the PSAF for your google search (I would be
happy to know where it gets the information from and
how...). At the first stage, while building up the umno
app's data, the umno add-on will ask the users to mark
keywords that categorize this information in the way that
is NOT searched for. OK I got it: We'll give you a list of
keywords that this set of information shares. And ask you
which part of it does NOT interest you. OR: We'll give you
a "word-cloud map" of all keywords with this set of
information. Clicking the minus sign on some of the
keywords exludes information categorized by these
keywords (even if they aren't present on the page).
Clicking the plus sign on other keywords will bring those
sites to the top of the search. |
|
| |
Under the hood, your umno choices (we're still at the first
stage before there's enough data to just umno without
giving any hints to whatyes) are given to our service
which attempts other PSAF and checks the resulting
keywords received both automatically from scanning the
content and from category keywords given by our users. |
|
| |
With time it will get better at suggesting directly with
umno, with no need for further fine tuning. |
|
| |
The great tits could be our advertisement. |

// Nekkidity is quite popular. // |
|
| |
The jury's still out on that one; the vast majority of humans look really bad when naked. Clothing doesnt' just provide environmental protection, it also helps to stop the milk from turning sour and all the clocks stopping. |
|
| |
// The halfbakery, hot enough that half-naked ideas are stripped closer to the naked truth. // |
|
| |
That's almost coherent. Who are you, and what have you done with the real [wjt] ? |
