Barry Schwartz Tells Google Enough Choices!

[rustybrick]

Well, not me, but the other Barry Schwartz that comes up in the news feeds as much as I do. http://google.blognewschannel.com/in...-limit-choice/

This Barry Schwartz us like twice my age and wrote a very popular book named The Paradox of Choice. He thinks Google gives us too many choices...

There's been some great research on this, most notably a paper called "Sampling Search Engine Results" delivered at the IW3C2 conference about a year ago by Andrei Broder (now at Yahoo), David Carmel (IBM Haifa Research Labs) and Aris Anagnostopoulos (Brown U.). There's a pdf of it online..sorry I don't have the link handy.

I always knew you were a trouble maker. There are so many words in the English language and ways to arrange them that I just don’t know what to say about that.

How confusing is it that there are now two people named Barry Schwartz talking about search?

The worst part is that he out ranks you for the name Barry Schwartz!

Don't you think if I put Barry Schwartz in my title tag, I would be #1?

Also, he is much older, and we all know Google likes older.
