This second link talks in general about the fight between the most important search engines, like Google or Yahoo. There is a new technology called Visual Pattern Recognition that Apple wants to apply it. This new technology is apply in the new Apple Iphone, you use the camera that it comes with this phone to recognize different CD or books. When it does it sends you to a search engine where information about the product is provided. It gives you a critic, a video from Youtube or to Itunes Music Store.

Constructing Queries
The search queries I would do is in the example, how could it be life in other planets. I will search it with different tags. The three tags that I would do will be:
The exact way to look for something you don't know and you only have some words is through tags. The tags is the way in how web pages indicate what should be displayed on the screen when the page loads. Tags are the basic formatting tool used in HTML.
- Life in Other Plantes
- Resources are a clue of living things in other planets?
- Aliens
Link º3: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien This link wasn't useful because it doesn't provides exact information about what a wanted to look for.
The way to refine the search about life in other planets, I would start to use words that are key to the subject. Doing this, I will be adding more tags that are related to the search I am doing. This will make my search more specific and the pages that appear will be more specific.

The Filter Bubble
1) Every time we did a search, we either
more or less use the same web pages, but many times we didn't get the same or
in different order. Even though all the members in our group had created the
gmail account just for the course, or had the account a long time ago but
didn't use to see new through google, we more or less had the same web pages
when we enter something in the search box of Google main page.
The conclusion I got of the video, talking about the
Filter Bubble, is that in a way search engines or other internet web page
service shows you the information you want to see. They suppously know what you
want to see from your lately searches. All the time you do a search, in gets
stored for the next time you do any type of search. This has a problem because
you can't decide to new news or other types enter your filter bubble. The
example that the man in the video gives is a very simple one. In Netflix, if
you want to look for new genres of movie, it will take longer to get to
recommendations. In the other hand, all the movies that you already have seen
will still appear in your recommendations although you have already seen them.
The man in the video also said another very important thing. When the internet
didn't exist, you had the news papers that provide you information. Those new
papers give only one type of view, you didn't know the opinions of other
people. The Filter Bubble does the same thing, only provides you one type of
view, blocking you from the others. It isolates you.
2) This new privacy policy of Google is shortened to
"Single User". Before this new policy, Google separate what you
searched in Google, Youtube or what you saw most in Google +. Now with the new
one Google, mixes the searches you do with their other web pages like Youtube.
If a user of Google doesn't want this, you must have different Google account
for every type of page that uses Google Accounts. This new policy is a Filter
Bubble inside the different Google web pages.

Search Engines
Search Engines
The second page that appeared was Telsa Motors (http://www.teslamotors.com/) which was
founded in 2003 and they wanted to prove that electric cars could be excellent
also. In this page you can see the
different models Telsa Motors offers.
The third page
to appear was Electric Cars, (http://electriccars.com/previews/main.cfm?FUNC=MAIN) which has as
a mission not to produce gas or pollution. They also have a ranking of the top
10 electric cars. Also, they show the worldwide dealer
network.
The fourth
page that appeared was Hybrid Cars (http://www.hybridcars.com/electric-car) that
explains what an electric car is, and then compares electric vs. Gasoline, also
they have a list of the new upcoming electric cars. It also provides a lot of information about
electric cars and its benefits.
The second search engine we used to look for
‘electric cars’ was yebol. I consider
that the first link (http://www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek/2009/01/09/switched-on-highways.html) was ranked in that position because of the
amount of times that the word ‘electric ’ and ‘cars’ appear throughout the
article. In addition, yebol may
recognize how popular this webpage is.
The link ranked second on Yebol’s search engine
was http://www.milesev.com/ This may be because of the fact that this
webpage that sells electric cars and tries to promote them. The webpage called milesev refers to miles
electric vehicles. This search engine
takes into account the use of the word vehicle, a synonym for
cars.
Thirdly ranked appears http://www.teslamotors.com/ Tesla is a webpage about cars specifies on
‘electric cars’, when you click on an interactive button. This suggests that the
search engine used, has a deep investigation on the websites so it also bases it
results on the links you may open within the webpage.
In the fourth ranked link, the word ‘car’
appears in the title, in the name of the webpage, and throughout the
article. This webpage is a guide on cars
and prices, and a listed category is ‘electric cars’ http://www.thecarconnection.com/
Besides, in
every webpage ranked in the first four places, our search query appeared as one
or more of the webpage’s tags.
c. The search engines algorithms are based
on the coincidence of your query with the webpage tags and also with the amount
of times your query or part of it is mentioned throughout the text. It also analyzes the importance of your query
in the webpage such as if your query is described and deeply analyzed or just
being mentioned. In the case of google,
Wikipedia appears as the first ranked link in several cases not only because of
your query and its popularity but also because Wikipedia is highly supported by
Google.
2. Search Engine Optimization is a process where the search
engines are optimized for the people who enter, it makes it more "friendly". The
most important objective is the choosing sites from the words that the user
imputs in the search engine. When a page is more visited that the others, it
tends to be in the top of the page when you look for something. Thats part of
the process of SEO. Also, the SEO targets to optimized other type of categories,
such as images, videos or news.

3. When we searched Miserable
failure on Google, we found that many links were related to the ex-president

found an article that explained that Adam Mathes who has a weblog and an online
journal of his thoughts and investigations,
used a bomb to make his friend page appear when talentless hack was
searched on Google. This may be used by
businesses or corporations to improve their position in search results.
