ABSTRACT:
A community search system may utilize the results of previous queries from community members and user feedback associated with those results to provide results for subsequent, similar queries from within the same community. Thus, by modifying and combining query results based, in part, on user feedback regarding previous results for similar queries, the trial and error of the many may improve the results for an individual. Users may be grouped into communities whose members are associated by common interests or characteristics. Feedback from one community member may be used to modify the query results for other community members. By analyzing user feedback with the community regarding query results, negative, incorrect or unnecessary results may be omitted or removed from subsequent results for similar queries.
