A Search Interface for my Questions

Conclusions

  Finding our way in huge quantities of non-homogeneous data requires more assistance than current search-engines are offering. There are ways to help us finding answers to our questions, but these are not implemented in any practical interface yet.

A sure thing is that more searching power also adds more complexity for the user. Experiments with real data on the interface described here have to show if the search will be improved by it.
