Google menacé ? Pas encore mais… - Transnets - Blog LeMonde.fr Curieux dimanche du côté de San Francisco. La blogosphère locale s’enflamme autour d’une proposition peut-être géniale, sûrement enflée. Il s’agirait d’un nouveau type de moteur de recherche capable de révolutionner le web et de faire trembler Google. Mais nous n’en savons presque rien, si ce n’est le nom : Wolfram Alpha . Nous ne disposons pour le moment que de deux sources : un billet de Nova Spivack , type sérieux, patron de Twine , qui a eu le droit à une démo de 2h dont il est sorti plutôt émerveillé. Il s’agirait d’un moteur de recherche qui au lieu de travailler sur les questions se concentre sur les réponses (c’est là toute l’astuce) grâce à des algorithmes sophistiqués et des bases de donnés gigantesques. Difficile d’en dire sérieusement plus puisque c’est à la fois extrêmement compliqué et presque totalement secret. Stephen Wolfram, l’inventeur, est un type hors du commun et qui le crie très fort. Nous en saurons plus en mai, date prévue pour la sortie de l’engin.
Convo Monitor: Where To Track Things on Twitter - Track Brands on Twitter - Track Ideas on Twitter - Track People on Twitter La fin annoncée du modèle Google Texte initialement publié en avril 1996 L'intelligibilité va avec l'immatérialité. Thomas d'Aquin Il faut se rendre à l'évidence: nous vivons un véritable Cyber-Bang, aux conséquences imprévisibles. L'économie du virtuel commence à façonner en profondeur une nouvelle société, en accélérant la dématérialisation des flux, en augmentant les court-circuits informationnels, en restucturant les marchés du traitement de l'information, en généralisant la "désintermédiation", mais aussi en provoquant de nouvelles inégalités culturelles entre "info-riches" et "info-pauvres". A. 1. "Un mot est encore l'homme, deux mots sont déjà l'abîme" - dit Roberto Juarroz. Il y a cependant une différence radicale entre le langage naturel et la formalisation mathématique: les mathématiques favorisent l'induction et la généralisation. Il y a la raison qui se porte sur les essences en tant qu'elles sont connues, clarifiées, et la raison qui se porte sur les essences en tant qu'elles sont cachées, obscures. 2. 3. 4.

Les lancements, plutôt mal perçus, d'outils comme Wikia Search ou Cuil ces derniers mois, font penser que toute initiative pour concurrencer le "Dieu Google" est irrémédiablement vouée à un échec certain. Je n'en suis pas si sûr... Pour moi, une recherche d'information sur le Web s'effectue en 3 phases : - Etape 1 : l'internaute a une recherche en tête. - Etape 2 : après avoir saisi ces mots clés dans un formulaire adéquat, l'utilisateur demande au moteur de trouver les pages qui correspondent à cette requête, les plus pertinentes parmi celles qu'il a indexées au préalable. - Etape 3 : le moteur restitue ces résultats selon une interface utilisateur dont le standard actuel est représenté par une liste de 10 liens placés linéairement, les uns en dessous des autres. Un peu d'audace, bon sang !
Brittany Murphy’s Death & Google’s Real Time Search Results The death of actress Brittany Murphy is probably the first test for Google’s new real time search results. Earlier this year, when Michael Jackson died, it took several minutes for the news to make it into Google despite the extraordinary number of searches it was getting. The integration of real time results was designed in part to ensure Google wasn’t falling behind on news until traditional news outlets could file. When I looked about 1/2 hour after the first reports came out, Google had plenty of traditional news results. That’s pretty normal, so it’s hard for me to tell what happened in the first minute after the news appeared. Was Google lacking news results? How about the real time results themselves? Well, you certainly get a flavor of reaction from people, right within the results: There were also plenty of news reports mixed in among the reactions. Then about five minutes later, the same URL was back: What’s up with that? Other weird things. Cormac Moylan tweeted: and
Miiget - Connecting people :) Important Info on Twitter and Real Time Search Everyone is trying to understand more about Real Time Search and how they can get their tweets ranked. Here are a couple bits of useful information to help you better understand. Statement from Bing: “If someone has a lot of followers, his/her Tweet may get ranked higher. Straight from Google’s Amit Singhal (who has led development of real-time search at Google): “One user following another in social media is analogous to one page linking to another on the Web. In other words, get followers that have lots of followers themselves! Hashtags a No-No?? Hashtags are really popular – and for good reason – they help your tweets get more exposure and help people organize topics. However they can also as red flags to lower tweet quality and attract spam-like content, Singhal says. Too bad – I see where Google is coming from but it’s really a useful strategy. Love to hear your thoughts and questions on this! Comments welcomed! From soggy, wet and windy Southern California, Be Sociable, Share!
One search, many useful results Google To Begin Indexing The Internet In Real-Time? In a move that might rewrite the entire search market, Google is rumored to be creating a system that will let allow web publishers to submit content to Google for search indexing in real-time. This of course follows the introduction of PubSubHubBub by Google, a tool to move syndicated content in real-time to aggregators. PubSubHubBub has become a hit among publishers looking to get their information into the market as quickly as possible. This move by Google, if it comes to fruition, would be a super-PubSubHubBub, not just moving your content into Google Reader at light speed, but also into the hands of the tens of millions of people searching Google every few hours. It would be a bigger move towards a real-time web than Twitter will ever be. Of course, this would give Google a strong leg up on Bing, and would tie internet publishers even tighter to the internet giant. Is there no corner of the world where Google will not expand into? When will this come out?
Google Realtime Search Gets Home Page, Conversation View, Alerts & Geosearch Google Realtime Search has finally gained its own home page, as well as some new tools including “conversations view,” Google Alerts for real time content and the ability to see tweets filtered by geography. New Home Page Back in June, my Can Google Real Time Search Have Its Own Home Page Now? Well, you’re supposed to find it there. Use that, and you can get into the service. Realtime Alerts Many people are familiar with Google Alerts, which allow you get an email whenever new content is found by Google matching your query. The screenshot above shows how on the Google Alerts page, you can use the drop down option to select “Updates” along with how often you want alerts (as it happens, once a day or once per week). Conversation View When you do a search, there’s now a “Full conversation” link that appears to help you see a thread of discussion that may be happening between various people. And you see the dialog: So any arrows!
Google Realtime Search Quietly Adds Quora, Gowalla, Others Google Realtime Search is nothing new. For months it has existed as its own area within the search engine’s navigation to search for things happening in realtime. But up until now, that has meant mainly Twitter (thanks to Google’s data deal with that company). But earlier today, it appears Google flipped the switch to make Realtime Search a lot more useful. Namely, they’ve added results from services like Quora, Gowalla, and a range of others. As pointed out in this Quora thread, it looks like Google flipped the switch to include the data from the services listed above (as well as others) this afternoon. As the Quora user notes, “Google Realtime Search is indexing Quora activity such as asking Questions, adding Answers, upvoting Answers, and submitting Posts.” We’ve known for sometime that Google was working with Quora to generate better social results.
