Microsoft Navigates To Best Match
,----[ Quote ]
| He compares the Microsoft filing to a recent
| Yahoo patent filing that details what the
| Sunnyvale, Calif., company might look for
| when deciding whether a query was
| navigational or not. Slawski bases some of
| his analysis on Microsoft's "best match"
| feature.

Microsoft on Navigational Queries and Best Match
,----[ Quote ]
| A recent Microsoft patent application applies
| a similar approach to defining navigational
| queries. The inventors of the patent filing
| tell us that queries can be generally
| classified as falling into a couple of broad
| categories: discovery queries and
| navigational queries.

Effect of Patents on Innovation
,----[ Quote ]
| We recognize that patents have two effects
| (ignoring "invent around" and "revealing
| secrets" both of which are of at best
| minuscule significance): increasing
| innovation by increasing incentives to
| innovate, and decreasing innovation by making
| it more costly to innovate. This paper gives
| us a pretty clean measure of the latter
| effect: the benefit of being able to access
| existing ideas without negotiation or
| licensing raises innovation by around 20%.
