Starting your Search

The Query Box

Type your query in the search box. A query can be as simple as words separated by spaces, or it can take advantage of more advanced features.

Execute the Search

Click the Search button to begin. Watson Explorer will send your query to its default list of search engines and wait for them to return results. Those results will then be clustered and displayed for you to browse.

Browsing the Clusters

Viewing the Contents of a Cluster

Clicking on the name of a cluster will display the search results contained in that cluster.

Expanding a Cluster

Clicking the plus symbol will expand a cluster, displaying the sub-clusters that it contains.

Number of Search Results in a Cluster

The number displayed next to a cluster is the number of unique search results that a cluster contains.

Expanding the List of Clusters

When a list of clusters is especially long, only the beginning of the list is displayed. To show the next segment of the list, click the "more" link.

Accessing the Results

Link to a Search Result

Clicking on the title of a search result will open the result page in the full window, replacing the Watson Explorer interface.

Opening the Result Page in a New Window

Clicking the new window link opens the result page in a new browser window.

Displaying Cached Results

If a cached version of the page is available for this result, clicking the cache link opens the cached version of the page in the full window, replacing the Watson Explorer interface.

Previewing the Result Page

Clicking the preview link displays a preview of the result page. Once a preview is displayed, click close preview to eliminate the preview.

Identifying the Clusters for a Result

Clicking the clusters link highlights all of the clusters in which this particular search result occurs.

The URL of a Result

The URL of a search result is listed in the footer of the search result.

Finding the Source of a Result

A list of the search engines which returned this search result is displayed next to the URL.

Using folders

To save a result into a folder, drag the title bar for that result into the desired folder in the sidebar. You can also select multiple results with the checkboxes, go to the Actions menu, and choose Save to Folder. To create a new folder, use the "Add new folder" link below the folders in the sidebar.
