SEARCH TOOL PROVIDING OPTIONAL USE OF HUMAN SEARCH GUIDES http://www.patentdebate.com/PATAPP/20070185841 Google is already using humans http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/the-role-of-humans-in-google-search/ but what if in the future they want to put human guides on Google will the patent above prevent them to do so ?
Sounds like an interesting idea. If Google finds this as a threat to their business, they may find a way around the patent.
Google is using human feedback to to check search quality but I think its impossible to have a search tool that provides human guides.
Sure it's possible but how much money are you going to spend $$$$ paying humans? Computers work for free.
