Sensebot. Automated summaries of search results.

Ran into Sensebot yesterday-first impression was ‘fantastic’ and ‘creepy’

What sensebot does is it gives you summarized results from your search query. The search is performed by all or any of the major search engines.  Sensebot takes those top results and after analysis returns summaries. So if your in a hurry- need quick rundowns of concise information about a certain topic then Sensebot is for you.

The summary serves as a digest on the topic of your query, blending together the most significant and relevant aspects of the search results.

Doing an ego query on Kotrotsos even got some creepy results. It’s like- things you have written but presented as quotes, which is great- but some quotes are presented out of context.  Other then that it is an fantastic service that I will be sure to use more to quickly become acquainted with certain topic.

“SenseBot is a semantic search engine, meaning that it attempts to understand what the result pages are about. It uses text mining to parse Web pages and identify their key semantic concepts. It then performs multidocument summarization of content to produce a coherent summary. You can read more about the approach in our interview to Search Engine Journal.”
