This is great recognition and further confirmation that Silobreaker is making a real impact in the search arena. Unfortunately, we won't be able to attend the Red Herring conference in San Diego but wish the organizers and our fellow Finalists a great event.

Silobreaker: Sophisticated Intelligence


"The whole philosophy behind Silobreaker is to move away from the traditional keyword based search query which generates just page after page of headline results and forces the user into a loop of continually adjusting the query to find relevance and context.
We see the keyword-based query as a possible entry point, but the graphical search results enable the user to discover, navigate and drill down further without having to type in new keywords. No-one can imagine managing numerical data without the use of descriptive graphical representations, so why do we believe that we can handle vast quantities of textual data in any other way. Well we don’t think we can, and traditional search is proving the point emphatically. Today’s Silobreaker is just giving you a first glimpse of how we (and I’m sure others) will use graphics to bring meaning to search results."
