Google Fact Extraction Pokes Out Its Nose
September 13, 2009
The Google fact extraction patents have been ignored. One Microsoftie told me last year that Google patents did not mean anything. Okay, click here and scan the fact extraction patents. The go to the Internet Stats site and review the samples. Not only did the patent documents explain the invention, some of the documents include examples. I assume the Microsoftie does not see the connection between the patent documents and the demo site. That’s one reason why Microsoft’s Bing is trying to be what Google was, not what Google is. Sort of a problem in my opinion. Denial is a useful tool for mental health, but it does not do much to narrow the gap between Microsoft’s Web search market share and Google’s market share in my opinion.
