Who's Who in Social Search By Chris Sherman, Executive Editor August 16, 2006 Many players, big and small, are working in the social search space. Here's a look at who's doing what to harness the power of human beings in improving search. In yesterday's SearchDay, What's the Big Deal With Social Search?, I offered an overview of social search, touching on the pros and cons of injecting human judgement into what has traditionally been a heavily algorithmic process. Today I'll map out the various approaches to social search and some of the key players in each area. Most of the major web search services are dabbling with social search. Other, smaller companies are creating social search tools as the core foundation of their business. Most social search services have some distinguishing technology or approach. What follows isn't a comprehensive overview of what's out there. Rather, it's a sampler of what's going on in the space. While all of these services can surface interesting content, they tend to reflect the biases and interests of their most avid users. And since even people with a lot in common can also have widely divergent interests, they often contain "noisy" results that may not be relevant. Shared bookmarks and web pages One of the first types of social search services to emerge sought to leverage the power of shared bookmarks. The idea here is that if people save a particular page as a bookmark or favorite, they're effectively voting for the page—fundamentally the same idea behind Google's PageRank, but counting the "votes" of web users rather than webmasters. There are literally hundreds of these types of shared favorites services. Among the more popular are Del.icio.us, Shadows, Yahoo's MyWeb, Furl and newly launched Diigo. Collaborative directories In the early days of the web, directories were the most popular information finding tools. Directories are compilations of pointers to web sites created by humans, who typically

search PreFound just like Google, Yahoo! or any search engine. But on PreFound, you'll get Groups of sites that knowledgable people like you have chosen about your topic, not what a computer program has chosen.
