V1 of a project of mine, Ungava[1], which uses Lucene to index research articles and library catalog metadata, also uses Project Simile's Metaphor and Timeline. I have some simple examples using them:
Here is the search for "cell" in articles: http://lab.cisti-icist.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/ungava/Search?collection=jos&contents=cell Here is a Timeline view of the search "cell" for articles: http://lab.cisti-icist.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/ungava/Search?calyHandler=timeLineView&collection=jos&contents=cell here is the Exhibit view: http://lab.cisti-icist.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/ungava/Search?calyHandler=exhibit&collection=jos&contents=cell Here is the keyword drill cloud[2] view: http://lab.cisti-icist.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/ungava/Search?tagCloud=true&collection=jos&tagField=keyword&contents=cell&numCloudDocs=200&numCloudTags=50 Here is the "cell" search of the library catalog: http://lab.cisti-icist.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/ungava01/Search?collection=csu&title=cell&sauthor=&keyword=&syear=-1&eyear=-1&sortBy=relevance Timeline view: http://lab.cisti-icist.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/ungava01/Search?calyHandler=timeLineView&collection=csu&title=cell Subject Drill Cloud: http://lab.cisti-icist.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/ungava01/Search?tagCloud=true&collection=csu&tagField=keyword&title=cell&numCloudDocs=200&numCloudTags=50&sortBy=relevance -Glen [1]http://lab.cisti-icist.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/cistilabswiki/index.php/Ungava [2]http://zzzoot.blogspot.com/2007/10/drill-clouds-for-search-refinement-id.html 2009/2/12 Omar Alonso <oralo...@yahoo.com>: > Hi, > > Depends on the kind of work that you want to do.
