Study Notes
Unveiling the "Unknown": From Google Extensions to Search Engine Features
If "unknown" encapsulates topics that are hidden or obscure, this exploration delves into recent developments in technology that aim to shed light on the unexplored corners of information.
Removing the "People Also Searched For": The No Search For Extension
A commonly encountered element on Google search results is the "People also searched for" section, which can shift the results downward when navigating back from a result. A Google Chrome extension called "No Search For" was designed to counteract this behavior, preventing the page from scrolling when the "People also searched for" box appears, thus improving user navigation on the search results page.
Deep in the ServiceNow Portal: Visible But Not Searchable
ServiceNow, a popular platform for IT service management, has seen instances where catalog items may be visible in the portal but cannot be searched for, due to a configuration setting called "No Search." If the "No Search" field is marked as true, the catalog item will be hidden from search results, preventing users from discovering it.
No Search in Bing Chat: A New Feature for Focused Answers
Bing Chat, a popular AI-powered search assistant, is set to introduce a "No Search" feature, allowing users to specify that they do not want the chatbot to search the web for an answer. This feature can be particularly useful in scenarios where the user is already knowledgeable about a subject and simply needs assistance with a problem, such as coding or math. Users will be able to specify that they do not want Bing Chat to search the web by adding the "#nosearch" tag at the end of their message, similar to how it's done with ChatGPT.
The No Search Issue in Other Contexts
The term "No Search" or variations of it also appear in other contexts, such as configuring sitemaps in content management systems like Typo3. In these instances, the "No Search" field is used to exclude certain pages from sitemaps, thereby preventing search engines from indexing them.
As we continue to explore the frontiers of information discovery, the "unknown" will undoubtedly be brought into sharper focus. These developments in search technology promise to enrich our ability to discover and navigate through vast ecosystems of information, while also providing users with more control, flexibility, and privacy.
