Search 2.0 vs Traditional Search, Part 1 and 2

Great write up of some emerging search ideas for the Web 2.0 environment.

From Read/WriteWeb:

"In our previous post we coined the term "Search 2.0", in order to compare third-generation search technologies (of, or pertaining to, the current era of social web) with traditional search engines - to see where the future of search lies.

Here then are some further profiles of search 2.0 apps, followed by our analysis of where the search industry is headed."
