Searching for Virtue - Virtuous Cycles as a Model for Successful Search Implementations
Enterprise Search
I like design patterns. I like the idea that there are right ways to do things and wrong ways (anti-patterns). Of course I understand that the world is not so black and white, but collecting and cataloging the collected wisdom of what works and what doesn’t when designing software systems seems like a very good idea to me.
I’ve written about this before. A couple of months ago, I blogged about the increased interest in HCIR and best practice patterns for search user experience (UX). In that [read].

Coping with Hype in Enterprise Search Marketing

Not long ago, I was invited to participate at a customer’s annual conference. It was an amazing experience.

A Focus on Search User Experience
Enterprise Search
It’s happening… slowly … but it’s happening.
Attention in search is finally shifting from a focus on low-level features and relevancy models to looking at the whole user experience for information access.

And yet, for many users, the search input box and a list of blue links is still the pinnacle of a search user experi [read].

Search and Natural User Interfaces - Part 2
