Goromi-Web: browsing for unexpected information on the web

Published:13 June 2007Publication History

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we describe an interface that provides information from the Internet, called Goromi-Web. Usually, a search function is used to browse information on the Internet. However, with a search function, the user obtains information that he knows to exist. With Goromi-Web, the user can literally browse information on the Internet, and sometimes can encounter unexpected information previously unknown to the user.
