search

3. Traditional search engines
• Focus on web pages
• Emphasis the old, not the new
• Give no indication of authority

5. This results in
• Poor quality data
• ‘Gaming’ of the engine
• Acceptance of results

6. A search engine wants to be
everything
•Knowledge graph
•Personal results
•Images
•Web pages
•News
•Related searches

7. Search engines don’t want you to think

8. Hunt the advanced search!

9. As for Bing...

10. Filter bubbles

12. Search engines
• Want to be everything to
everyone

22. Google fights back

25. When we need to know
• We go to authoritative sources
– (How do we know what they are?)
• We go to places that we trust
– Libraries, schools, official materials
• We ask the people that we know

26. How should we be in the future?
• More active in social media
• Contributing across the internet
• Commenting, sharing content
• Guiding people
