Autonomy Knipsel
March 12, 2009
A news release turned up in my newsreader with an interesting set of tags. You can read the story about Autonomy, the meaning based computing company, here. If the link goes dead, you will be able to find the original story on the Autonomy Web site here. My newsreader presented me with this headline, “Autonomy Powers Pioneering News Portal – MSN MoneyCentral”. What I think happened is that the news release title has the appended source, “MSN Money Central” as the full title. I don’t know if the parser jammed the two separate fields together or if it was some other type of human or system error. I was expecting to learn that Autonomy sold its search system to MSN Money Central. What the item told me was that Autonomy landed a news service about which I knew nothing. I found this interesting because my Overflight service makes some assumptions about what is a title and what is not a title. I will have to revisit that logic.
