I found a cool search engine - SearchMe
(a gold supporter of the conference) on the website of CIKM 2008. It
uses a totally different way to present the search results. Compared
with snippets, picture slides is much more intuitionistic and friendly
to users. Users can easily make an initial judgement whether the
contents of a web page can satisfy their requirements.
To be honest, the most interesting feature attracts me is the classification of the returned web pages. When we input the keywords, a classification is instantly shown on the top of the slide. This feature is very useful for effectively filtering out the irrelevant results. Of course, the accuracy of classification should be improved (I think it mainly depends on the research of web mining), but this is a good direction.
