Real-Time Faceted Search is a journey; a journey that enables you to easily tell the internet what you're looking for and let the internet find it for you. It starts with the same key word everyone is familiar with, but then guides the user through a series of contextual prompts, or 'facets', that eventually build out a more 'complex query' more powerful than that of typical keyword search. Through the use of a number of GUI techniques, the user is able to either select or fill in elements of this query in intuitive ways with all the code crunching being hidden in the background. The query can then be run over mashed up linked data sources. This enables the everyday user to build out these deep queries over linked data and receive much more relevant results.

Faceted Wikipedia Search allows users to ask complex queries against Wikipedia. The answers to these queries are not generated using key word matching as the answers of search engines like Google or Yahoo, but are generated based on structured information that has been extracted from many different Wikipedia articles.
