http://www.groxis.com/ will begin allowing computer users to view Yahoo search results with its visualization technology,;hoping that by making its software available as part of a standard Web browser it will be able to wean surfers away from the simple ranked lists of search results offered by Google and Yahoo. : http://www.montereyherald.com/mld/montereyherald/business/11601173.htm . Until now the company has sold a $49 program for use with Windows-based and Macintosh computers. Beginning this week, the company will rely instead on revenue from advertisements placed by the Yahoo ad placement service. Groxis executives say that by showing categories instead of a ranking listing, searchers may uncover gold they would have otherwise missed. The Stanford university community has found that navigating the clusters represented in the Groxis maps is simple to understand and that it permits users to go directly to areas of relevance. One new feature of the browser version of the search tool that Groxis is hoping to exploit is the ability to edit and easily share visual Grokker maps.
