Topic Maps or Search?

Presentation, was published by Torstein Thorsen at 2009-03-19

FAST and the next generation search

For most topics there is no lack of information, but rather a lack of precision. Useful knowledge all too easily drowns.

Is it really the case that the degree of effort involved in structuring our knowledge universe is justified by the usefulness of the result – or is it rather the case that search technology is now so good that topics and relationships can be inferred directly?

FAST was acquired by Microsoft one year ago. What are we working on now? How much have we achieved in terms of understanding semantics, and not least: what promise does the future hold?
