Almost everyone searches Google to find information, and Google quickly rewards them by displaying a huge number of links for review. Certainly Google finds the information we are seeking, but the challenge is to find only the relevant pages  in the multitude of links quickly.

 

The challenge of web searches
Web navigation is driven by text. Keywords act as general directions for our searching needs. What we do not know before the search results are revealed is in what context these keywords are used in the documents found by Google.
In short, we need context to help us evaluate usefulness of search results.
Google, as any other search engine, is unaware of context. Google provides pages with keywords in the text regardless of the context of their uses.
By nature, web queries are very short and it is doubtful that a one, or two, or three-word query can clearly express users’ informational objectives.
This is where Context Organizer comes in to your help with Google searches.
With Context Organizer, your Google search results are automatically summarized! You always see the most relevant keywords in context! 
At a glance, you are able to recognize how useful any of your Google search results are. And to top this, you do not have to click on any of the Google links. With a simple click of the Search+ button, Context Organizer will keep summarizing Google search results and display the summaries in separate tabs for ease of review.
You do not have to click on the links, wait for the connection, and then read the page – this is all instantly accomplished by Context Organizer.
Say you summarize 20 top Google search results, you can theneasily review the key sentences, assess the relevancy of the keywords, and quickly form a comprehensive idea ofwhich of the search results are useful to you, in context with your objectives. Practically, compactly, and quickly, Context Organizer presents you with the most relevant content and keywords from Google search results.

Scanning and Skimming instead of Reading

Monday, August 11th, 2008
 

At a click of a button in the web browser, you instantly see the keywords and the context of the web page or Google search results.

Jacob Nielsen provided a revealing study on How Users Read on the Web:
“People rarely read Web pages word by word; instead, they scan the page, picking out individual words and sentences.”
 
 
There are different methods of reading for different purposes.
 
The technique we choose depends on the reason for reading; for example, we can read for pleasure, for information, or to complete an assignment.
 
If we are appraising or reviewing, we may just skim a document. If we are searching for specific facts, we may scan for particular keywords. To get detailed information, we need to dig deeper into the text.
 
In effect, we adjust our reading speed and our focus depending on our purposes.
 
When reading large volumes of information, skimming and scanning may be more practical than deep reading.
 
Usually scanning is the first thing that we do when we select a source for review. It helps answer such questions as:
 
·   Is this relevant to what I’m looking for?
·   Will this give me the answers I’m looking for?
·      Is there anything in this related to my interest?
In fact when we are scanning, we are zipping through the whole source, homing in on the important chunks. Scanning gives us a feel for the whole item; it works like a powerful filter and saves us time.
 
In practice, scanning is a particularly useful technique for reading web pages. For example, we scan Google search results rapidly checking for relevant keywords. We glance at the titles and summaries searching for phrases or keywords that relate to our search.
 
There is also a deeper rationale for scanning; when we scan, our minds are instantly matching the keywords with the purpose of our query. This instant contextualization is the main reason why scanning is a very effective filter for identifying the relevancy of information.
 
 Context Organizer comes with built-in automatic scanning and skimming filters.  At a click of the button in the web browser, Context Organizer instantly identifies the keywords and key sentences by relevance. That means that the users instantly know if the web page is important to them and what the focal points are.
  
Try out Context Organizer to help you with rapid scanning and reading.

Jared Goralnick’s report from the inaugural Information Overload conference

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

 "Information overload solutions from a conference dedicated to the topic" By: Jared Goralnick

I’m overwhelmed with ideas from the Information Overload conference this week.  In an effort to reflect, I’ve listed some of the major stats and themes discussed for managing too much stuff.
 
I was sorry that I could not attend yesterday’s Information Overload conference in New York, but thanks to Jared’s quick report we can get a good sense of what was presented.
 
Aside of Jared’s report, for those interested in the subject, you can listen to Jonathan Spira, Jon Herlocker, and Maggie Jacksoninterview on CBC’s “The Current” aired on July 3rd, 2008.
