Agora node [[crowdsourced-search]] β
Crowdsourced Search
-
Any [[entity]] can have a [[node]] in the [[Agora]].
-
Search queries are entities.
- Search queries can also be decomposed in constituent entities for better modeling using a grammar, but that is not strictly necessary.
-
Search queries are entities.
-
The Agora is a [[distributed knowledge graph]] by the people, for the people.
- Agora [[nodes]] are [[crowdsourced]].
- From the above it seems to follow that the [[Agora]] is a sufficient platform to implement crowdsourced search.

Pulled node [[agora-search]] β
Agora Search
-
The [[agora]] is in essence equivalent to a [[distributed]] [[wiki]].
- Note you could theoretically use a wiki to [[crowdsource]] search results; in the limit, think of having a wiki page for every likely user query.
-
Perhaps [[agora search]] tries to find a good match for your query locally and redirects to other agoras in the network or to [[google]] or [[duckduckgo]] if a good local result isn't available.
- When it volunteers something, it also offers to continue your query in the search authority of your choice.
- [[push and pull]] could be used to offer hints for how to route queries to relevant results.
-
The [[agora]] can already be used as a [[search engine]].
-
To do so, you can use the following URL template in your browser of choice:
https://anagora.org/search?q=%s
- Searching this way behaves the same way as searching using the text box always at the top of this [[agora]].
- As of [[2021-02-27]], you can also just use [[open search]] to add the [[agora]] as a search engine; this works at least on [[firefox]]. You should be able to see the agora as an available search engine to add in the search box.
-
The [[agora]] will try to serve any relevant nodes for your queries -- useful for when you have notes on the topic you're searching for.
- In every case, the [[agora]] will try to make it easy for you to 'click through' and continue your search elsewhere -- in established search engines or the websites of your choice.
-
To do so, you can use the following URL template in your browser of choice:
- Agora Search is [[crowdsourced search]] for the [[open]] [[internet]].
- [[user story]]
- [[keywords]]
- [[pull]] [[crowdsourced search]]

Pulled node [[jump]] β
Jump
- An [[Agora action]].
-
Jump is very simple: it encodes a query as a node id (using [[unicode-slugify]], if you're interested) and sends you to the matching node.
- It's like search, but the results page is a [[node]] -- so it can be [[crowdsourced]].
- You can add the [[Agora]] as a [[search engine]] in your [[browser]]: https://anagora.org/jump?q=%s
- If you are viewing this in an Agora, you can use jump by typing in the jump box at the top of the page.
