A Search Blog Done Right?
Welcome to the Search Done Right blog, devoted to the challenges of enterprise search. There are many related blogs by John Battelle, Matt Cutts, Gary Price, Barry Schwartz, Danny Sullivan, Read/WriteWeb, and others. However, these excellent blogs mostly focus on web search: Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, etc.
Some questions we’ll address are: Why is enterprise search often so poor in comparison to web search? What are best practices in evaluating and buying enterprise search? What are new, good, or worthless trends and technologies? Where does enterprise search fall short? Which public web sites have good and bad site search, and why?
Who are we, and why should anybody want to read this blog?
We are Raul Valdes-Perez, Jerome Pesenti and Chris Palmer (Vivisimo CEO, Chief Scientist and CTO). We have rich expertise as academic researchers and developers/designers of state-of-the-art search - our exclusive focus. We have strong opinions on how to do search right. Occasionally other experts at Vivisimo will be heard, as will occasional guest bloggers.
This will not be the typical corporate blog that just toots its own horn. Instead, we will share our knowledge of the horn, applaud good horns, critique poor horns, and interpret other horn blowers. If our horn gets tooted along the way, that will be nice, but incidental.
Let us “Go Search like Nobles, like Noble Subjects.” (Hericanus, in Shakespeare’s Pericles).
