Abstract

A system and method and method for personalized searching of a computer network, such as a local area network or the world wide web, is disclosed. The method involves submitting a user search query, submitting the search query and a user profile to a search engine, processing the search query based on a user profile to calculate the relevancy of search results, and returning highly personalized search results to the user based upon the calculated relevancy. The user profile may include declared and observed information. Declared information includes information provided by the user, such as, for example, individual and demographic information. Observed information is gathered by the system by reviewing user word usage gathered from the user's documents, machine configuration, email and instant messages, and other areas. The system may compare words to a baseline to determine the relative incidence of word usage for inclusion into the user's profile. Observed information may further or alternatively include information regarding the user's historical behavior, including the types and frequency of websites visited.
