Abstract
A method including receiving at least one search term (e.g. HIV) from an interface (e.g. a web browser on a personal computer). The method may search a network for documents (e.g. web pages) that include at least a portion of the search term. The method may determine the source (e.g. news outlets such as National Geographic or the National Enquirer) and sort the documents based on the source of the documents. A search engine may implement a method that uses the source to qualify (e.g. sort) search results based on the source of the documents.
Claims21
-20. (canceled)
An electronic device comprising:
- a processor;
- a non-transitory storage medium coupled to the processor and configured to store instructions for execution by the processor to cause the electronic device to:
- receive at least one search term from an interface;
- search a network for documents that comprise at least a portion of the at least one search term;
- determine a source of resulting documents of the search;
- determine the relevance of the resulting documents based at least on the source of the resulting documents comprising qualifying the source of the resulting documents based at least on:
- reputation of the source;
- and
- equivalence to at least one pre-qualified source input by a user;
- sort the resulting documents based at least on the qualifying the source of the resulting documents.
A computer implemented method comprising:
- receiving at least one search term from an interface;
- searching a network for documents that comprise at least a portion of the at least one search term;
- determining a source of resulting documents of the search;
- determining the relevance of the resulting documents based at least on the source of the resulting documents comprising qualifying the source of the resulting documents based at least on;
- reputation of the source;
- and
- equivalence to at least one pre-qualified source input by a user;
- sorting the resulting documents based at least on the qualifying the source of the resulting documents.
A non-transitory medium configured to store instructions to cause an electronic device to perform functions, the instructions comprising:
- receiving at least one search term from an interface;
- searching a network for documents that comprise at least a portion of the at least one search term;
- determining a source of resulting documents of the search;
- determining the relevance of the resulting documents based at least on the source of the resulting documents comprising qualifying the source of the resulting documents based at least on;
- reputation of the source;
- and
- equivalence to at least one pre-qualified source input by a user;
- sorting the resulting documents based at least on the qualifying the source of the resulting documents;
- wherein qualifying the source of the resulting documents comprises comparing the established reputation of the source and the equivalence to at least one pre-qualified source input of each resulting document to the established reputation of the source and the equivalence to at least one pre-qualified source input of each other resulting document.
