[edit] Search Patterns Wiki

This wiki serves as a gateway to the Search Patterns Library and as a collaborative space for work on a new book about the future of search and discovery by Peter Morville and Jeffery Callender.

Update: Our book (arriving January 2010) is now available for pre-order via Amazon and O'Reilly Media.

Book Description

Search is among the most disruptive innovations of our time. It influences what we buy and where we go. It shapes how we learn and what we believe. This provocative and inspiring book explores design patterns that apply across the categories of web, e-commerce, enterprise, desktop, mobile, social, and realtime search and discovery. Using colorful illustrations and examples, the authors bring modern information retrieval to life, covering such diverse topics as relevance ranking, faceted navigation, multi-touch, and augmented reality. Search Patterns challenges us to invent the future of discovery while serving as a practical guide to help us make search better today.
