information fluency @ Bing vs. Google - 0 views

  • Dennis OConnor
     
    Here's a side by side comparison of Bing Vs Google results on the term: Information Fluency

    21cif.com ( formerly 21cif.imsa.edu ) has been online for 10+ years and dominates the Google Search results. Nothing in the top ten for Bing? Google ranks our old url #1 and our new url #4. Give this a try for your self with the same terms? I'll bet you get radically different results from Google than I do. Since I've worked on the 21cif project for nearly 8 years, I know the materials well. Also Google has adapted to my search habits and provides me with more links relevant to my interest. On the Google page I'm given a link to my search-wiki results: http://tinyurl.com/21cif-search-wiki

    This proves the point 21cif has been making for a decade: USE MULTIPLE SEARCH ENGINES! The more sources of information you tap, the better your chances of getting a less filtered view of what's available on the world wide web

Google Jolts Search Engine With Caffeine - New search tech under the hood? - 0 views

  • Google engineers unveiled the news in a blog and said that they have been working on this "secret project" over the past few months.
  • The changes may be more apparent to Web developers and power searchers, so Google is opening up a Web developer preview to get their feedback.
  • Another tester liked the fact that Caffeine also provides more results from social networking sites.


    "I've noticed more Twitter pages in the results with this version of Google. Quite like having that - makes it easier to find people and companies."
