Google is preparing a new tool for web communication called Google Wave.It is in essence a combination of Google Mail and Google Docs, letting people collaborate on projects.
For many companies finding a way to combine all the different communication streams in a company into one coherent tool has been the holy grail of information management for a long time.
If you are working on a project, you generate a lot of emails, text files, images, spreadsheets, presentations etc.
What if there was one place where all participants could find all the relevant information and all documents produced, regardless of what format they were made in?
Content management tools
At the moment there are no easy application that can gather all these types of data for you. Lotus Notes may solve some of these tasks, other companies are developing their own mash-ups of emails, blogs, wikis, RSS-feeds etc., but for the time being people [...]

A week after the launch, Wolfram Alpha has announced it will soon pass 100 million queries. One reason for this is the fact that this new search engines doesn’t deliver search results like Google, Yahoo and the rest — it solves problems.
Wolfram Alpha isn’t a search engine, it’s a fact engine. It will never compete with Google for navigational queries, news search, blog search, video search or image search. But it might steal a lot of traffic on fact queries.
Wolfram Alpha’s goal is:
[T]o make all systematic knowledge immediately computable and accessible to everyone. (…) to collect and curate all objective data; implement every known model, method, and algorithm; and make it possible to compute whatever can be computed about anything.

All this, of course, goes on behind the scene. The only tool you need to compute the data and solve your fact related problems is the search box.

The big search engine news story this week was the launch of the new Wolfram Alpha search site, by some hyped to be the new Google. Pandia is not convinced that Wolfram Alpha will make a major impact.
It isn’t. Wolfram Alpha is not an alternative to Google or any of the other major search engines, it is another type of search tool that complements Google. They themselves call it “a computational knowledge engine.”
The name refers to the founder, former particle physicist Steven Wolfram.
In short Wolfram Alpha is a fact finder that is especially fond of statistics. Ask it for the distance to the moon and it will tell you not only the average distance (385000 km), but also the distance right now (363389 km).
If you ask it about how to market your site online, however, it is totally at loss: “Wolfram|Alpha isn’t sure what to do with your input.”

Is your memory mostly visually triggered? Or are you simply tired of text based search and looking for the next thing? Here are the top 5 visual search engines, each with a different take on visual search interface and presentation of results.
Few things change as quickly as the web and as it changes, so should web search: Web content is more complex and interactive now and that requires different search tools.
But creating alternative search engines isn’t easy. There are reason for Google’s dominance and the prime reason is the quality of the search results, which is great — even if until this week the search results were entirely text based.
Danny Sullivan has argued that the quality of search results in visual search engines isn’t all that good. And he is right. Still, it is necessary to explore new ways of presenting and interacting with search results.
Here are five [...]

Ask.com tries to sneak in an Ask toolbar by adding a topframe to search engine results — again. That is bad idea.
You can say what you want about the search engine Ask.com. At the same time as Google is struggling with downtime and complaining customers, Ask thinks they can win new customers by adding — wait for it! — frames to search engine results!
Yes, it is true that we have already written about this. However, after the previous frame attempt of February this year, Ask gave up on the experiment and returned to regular non-frame search engine result pages.
Top frame with Ask search field
The new frameset divides your browser window in two: At the top there is a frame with a Ask search field containing your query and links to related results (definition, videos). Under is the page you have decided to visit by clicking on one of the relevant [...]
