What is this platform that Google is building? It’s a distributed computing platform that can manage web-scale datasets on 100,000 node server clusters.‘ http://blog.topix.net/archives/000016.html

In the ever-expanding World Wide Web, the most relevant resources for research are not always on the first page of Google results. Sometimes they’re not even on the first 20 pages. Data visualization tool Grokker offers some relief for users looking to quickly retrieve pertinent information from deep within the Web and other digital resources. The software groups search results pages according to content, then maps them into concentric spheres based on their relative importance. For example, a search on ‚King Arthur‘ produces spheres labeled ‚myths,‘ ‚histories,‘ and ‚musicals.‘ Students can click on the most relevant sphere, and continue clicking until they drill all the way down to the individual sites they need. Maps can also be edited, saved, and shared via e-mail, offering teachers a great way to quickly guide students to important Web sites or files. http://www.techlearning.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=18311581 http://www.groxis.com/

Newsmap is a good example. http://www.marumushi.com/apps/newsmap/
