Three's a Trend: The Decline of Google Search Quality. Bibliography on Automated Text Categorization. Taxonomies, Classification, Categorization - SearchTools.com Report. The terms taxonomy ontology directory cataloging categorization and classification are often confused and used interchangeably. There are a number of applications that can help people create taxonomies and place information objects within their categories, although the amount of automation can vary. When evaluating these applications, remember that they are simply software. A directory is an organized sets of links, like those on Yahoo or the Open Directory Project, which allows a web site to display the scope and focus of its content. Fredhopper. Where Is Search Going: Yahoo’s Sashi Seth. I’m continuing my look at what search might look like in the future with this first part of a fascinating interview with Shashi Seth, the Senior VP of Search Products at Yahoo.

With the recent Bing arrangement, Yahoo now finds themselves in an interesting position in the search game. Now that Yahoo search results are powered by Bing’s algorithm, the company can move its focus from maintaining a web index to how the information is presented to the user. It’s analogous to a car manufacturer farming out the drive train assembly to a partner so they can focus on body styles and interiors. So, my first question for Shashi is now, in the new search ecosystem, what does the Senior VP of Search do at Yahoo? Seth: Our goal with Yahoo Search was to rethink search, essentially.

I think our mission is to rethink and reimagine search entirely. I asked Shashi what this meant: Is Yahoo’s focus squarely on the user experience now that Bing is powering the algorithm? Seth: That’s correct.
