The displayed microblog entries may be the most recently generated microblog entries that are responsive to the search input. In another embodiment, the microblog entries returned are a best match to the search criteria, which may be based on a user authority score for a user that drafted a microblog entry and additional characteristics of the microblog entry. | 07-21-2011 |
20110246439 | AUGMENTED QUERY SEARCH - A query is annotated with a small sketch (e.g. a Bloom filter) that approximates a set of interest that is related to the query. The query and sketch may be forwarded to index servers that each stores a portion of a search engine corpus. Each of the index servers may filter documents using the sketch before returning results for aggregation. The sketch is designed so there may be false positives (results returned by authors not in the set), but no false negatives (all relevant results are returned). The final aggregated results set may be checked against the full set to remove false positives before returning the final results to the user. | 10-06-2011 |

20110039243 | APPARATUS, SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING A CHANGE IN TEST RESULTS - An apparatus for determining a change in test results includes a storage module, a pre-test module, a post-test module, a grading module and a summary creation module. The storage module stores a plurality of questions and a correct answer to each question. The pre-test module submits a group of pre-test questions to a user and receives answers to the pre-test questions from the user (“pre-test answers”). The post-test module, in response to the user being exposed to educational material related to the pre-test questions, submits a group of post-test questions to the user and receives answers to the post-test questions from the user (“post-test answers”). The grading module compares the pre-test answers and the post-test answers. The summary creation module creates a session summary including a comparison between the pre-test answers and the post test answers. The questions and answers are submitted and received over a computer network. | 02-17-2011 |
