Abstract:
A computer-implemented method is provided, which includes presenting to a user (30) a range of levels of personalization of search results, including a personalized level, a global level that is not personalized, and a community level between the personalized level and the global level. An indication (550) of a desired one of the levels, and a search query (52) consisting of one or more query terms, are received from the user (30). Responsively to the search query, a search result listing (54) is generated. At least a portion of the search result listing (54) is ranked at least in part responsively to the indication (550), and at least a portion of the ranked search result (54) listing is presented to the user (30). Other embodiments are also described.
