Microsoft Search Blog Not Updated in Months
June 2, 2011
If you have not visited the Microsoft Search Blog, you may want to check it out. We think it is a good example of the commitment Microsoft has to enterprise search. Oh, Microsoft still sells Fast Search, consulting, certifications, and add ons. However, the blog is not exactly a pivot point.
It’s about relevance, it’s about speed and it’s all about competition…ya snooze, ya lose, right?
We’re a little confused then, by the search results we got from Google recently when queried “enterprise search.”
Our queries for content and visits to the site over a week or so revealed that the last update seems to have been about ten months ago.
My hunch is that somewhere, in some small, cubby in Redmond, there’s a person who’s supposed to be searching and updating the enterprise blog.
We try to monitor the SharePoint search world, and we are finding that the information about SharePoint search is mostly about getting a SharePoint system under control, back on track, and delivering specific functionality. You can track our SharePoint coverage at www.sharepointsemantics.com. We also cover SharePoint in Beyond Search. Just search for the category SharePoint in the search box on the blog’s splash page.
The goslings and I will try to “mind the gap”.

SharePoint Needs Speed Still
May 28, 2011
Speed and efficiency are two attributes that companies want from their content search provider and BA Insight seems to have taken care of them both with its new Longitude Preview for Hosted SharePoint Service.
According to the PR Newswire article “BA Insight Offers Instant Search Result Preview as a Service to Hosted SharePoint Providers” the unveiled its new product at the Tech-Ed North America conference and has already made the service available to interested customers. We learned:
“The new offering enables SharePoint users to view search result content without the need to download the file, and automatically directs users to the most relevant page of their search content.”
With one quick click users will be able to bring up their search results and scan through the content without having to wait to download the entire file and best of all SharePoint customers can easily add the service to their existing options and their customers can begin using it immediately. Perhaps BA Insight has finally met the need for speed? Microsoft, hurry up.
