Google Gives Search a Refresh - WSJ.com

* Over the next few months, Google's search engine will begin spitting out more than a list of blue Web links. It will also present more facts and direct answers to queries at the top of the search-results page.
* The changes to search are among the biggest in the company's history and could affect millions of websites that rely on Google's current page-ranking results. At the same time, they could give Google more ways to serve up advertisements.
* The company is aiming to provide more relevant results by incorporating technology called "semantic search," which refers to the process of understanding the actual meaning of words.
* Semantic search can help associate different words with one another, such as a company (Google) with its founders ( Larry Page and Sergey Brin).
* Google search will look more like "how humans understand the world,
* To provide answers that aren't already in Google's ever-expanding database, the company will blend new semantic-search technology with its current system to better recognize the value of information on websites and figure out which ones to show in search results. It would do so by examining a Web page and identifying information about specific entities referenced on it, rather than only look for keywords.
* This move could spur millions of websites to retool their Web page—by changing what's called a "markup language"—so the search engine could more easily locate them under the new system.
* The shift to semantic search could directly impact the search results for 10% to 20% of all search queries, or tens of billions per month.

Top notch reporting here. Made me picture Doctor Evil describing "The o-zone layer"

they've already been doing all of the above things for a while. search will remain search as search is what makes them money. They're just adding more little doo-dads to make consumers think they're improving so they keep on coming back and clicking those ads
 
I'm posting this again, I don't give a fuck. This thread is much more relevant.

The guy with the eye patch is Google

I think it's time for WF community to take an action! It's time to start shouting in one voice! It's time to send clear message to Google!!!

.Hack, could you please ban Matt Cutts account?
 
Remember that interview where Amit said his dream was to make Google search like the computer you could talk to in Star Trek, his childhood dream.

Exactly, they've been serving up more than just 'blue links' for some time now.
 
This means adding the results of dictionary.com to the serp 1 spot. EMDers watch out.

I don't see where you are coming from. How does this affect EMDers? Most of they EMD terms are longer terms that are not really in dictionary or wiki. I wouldn't rank an EMD that is exact match of dictionary or wiki. If that's what EMDers did, they are not doing it right anyways.
 
My boss had this article waiting on my desk for me this morning with a post-it note that says "Read This. Need to take action now." I'm glad that my internet-explorer-using 50+ year old boss is watching my back. LOL.
