How can Context Organizer help you with Google searches?

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

 

Answer: by simply clicking a button, Google search results are summarized by Context Organizer and displayed in tabs for easy review. 
See a demo of Context Organizer’s ability to summarize Google search results.
See a sample screen of Summarized Google Search Results.
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.

What is a Knol?

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

 According to Google:

A knol is an authoritative article about a specific topic.
The goal behind the Knol is to provide more complete and versatile treatment on the different aspects of the subject being covered. In short CONTEXT is provided to better understand the subject.  
So for example, if you were to read about a specific subject such as insomnia - you would be able to learn about variety of aspects about insomnia ranging from introduction, to sleep promotion, types of insomnia, diagnosis, medical and non-medical treatments, etc. – all in one article complemented with references.
From experience we know that content without context is difficult to value. Perhaps Knols are good attempts to improve understanding by conveniently providing well-researched context to content.
So far there’s no common format or standard on how to create Knols, how to comment on entries and how to collaborate on entries. However, Knol is an early beta project and it will certainly evolve so for time being we should keenly observe if it is going to help us in dealing with information quality.

Common sense knowledge management advice

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

"The Writing Organization: Knowledge Management Made Easy" By: Tim Leberecht 

1-Sentence Summary*

Depending on their role, employees can blog about customer experiences, sales tactics, strategy, product improvements, organizational design, competitors, market trends, and even gossip."

Isn’t this obvious? And yet this common sense advice is seldom practiced… I wish that every organization acts on Tim Lebrecht’s advice. 

By encouraging employees to write about their problem solving, customers, and management issues organizations can tap into a very rich source of tacit knowledge.  
 
Freely shared experience helps in identifying common challenges and solutions. It is a quick and perhaps a fun way to build corporate culture in a non-elitist way. It may also be a very good way to improve morale because it gives everyone forum and voice in decision making process, makes things more transparent and fosters collaboration.
 
Indeed, Tim points out a common sense approach to knowledge management and knowledge sharing.
