Building Great Search Experiences – Site, Service or App

Event Interactive 2011
Format Panel
Organizer Jeff Dexter yolink
Description We'll kick off this panel by asking each panelist about their long-term vision, exploring different ideas about what search can really be -- certainly more than a set of ten blue links. We'll then transition to practical matters, including a pretty technical discussion of recent innovations in search that are already available, techniques and technologies that can be integrated into your site, service or app today. You don't have to be building a new search engine to care about giving your users a great search experience. Search isn't just a box to check -- it's an opportunity to differentiate. Finally, we'll go through a few accomplished examples of search innovation, highlighting what makes each one special, and how we can learn from their lead.
