Assuming NO limitations on the technology what would internet researchers vote for as their top features to add to search engines?

Some of mine:

1. Access to all results. When I do a search and see 3500 results, and can only get to a maximum of 1000…ahhhhh

2. Some control over the business logic in the ranking algorythm. - to much popularity means too much mob mentality.

3. The ability to perform 2 searches and create a concordance of results in a 3rd search - Example get a list of all terms that have to do with JAVA and then perform a resume search with the entire list as an input into one of those complex search strings that all you souring gurus are fond of.

    Yes, that would be *really* nice. But there are plenty of other enhancements to search engines that would be great, esp. in the area of personalization. And even just convenience. Check out what Microsoft has created in Tafiti.com (you do need to download/install Microsoft Silverlight, but it’s worth it - it’s going to challenge Adobe’s web dev products bigtime before long).
