[Unless the search engine will temporarily read your mind while you’re using it, it’s not going to happen.]

Amen. This is what the author of this site is proposing, for a search engine that reads the mind, even a 5 year old knows that it is a wishful thinking. I wondered if the authors of this site are the new age thinkers, proposing things that are unachievable in human life.

Adam Jusko said...
[No search engine is going to beat out Google because of superior semantic search.]

Umm, may be Microsoft one day and it is a big  MAY. Google and all other vendors (including Microsoft &#38; Yahoo) are working on Semantic Web technology to improve searches. I am impressed with the R&#38;D work that Microsoft Asia is doing. Microsoft do publish their researches in different international peer review journals, such as ACM, IEEE, etc. There is very little publication from Google &#38; Yahoo, preferring to keep their R&#38;D closely guarded. I read lots of research papers from Microsoft all the time and have made contact with some of their authors to ask for clarification about the algorithm derivation in their papers. They are always keen to collaborate with you (or anyone really) who wants to implement their algorithm by answering any question you fired them. Two of those generous researchers from Microsoft that are:

- Dr. Benyu Zhang
http://research.microsoft.com/users/byzhang/

- Dr. Zheng Chen
http://research.microsoft.com/~zhengc/

Check out the topics of their researches. One just have to think of how Microsoft is putting a huge amount of money into R&#38;D, and this is why I think, MAY BE  Microsoft will  knock off Google at some stage in the future.

Finally, I think that the authors of this website are some types of new age thinkers. They write irrelevant topics on search engine despite not reading  research peer papers on the subject. I recommend that authors of this site to start reading peer review articles on search engine, so you familiarise yourself with the technology, before making ridiculous comments here about search engines.</description>
