    Google tunes search engine for facts, events.


    Google is making it easier for people to find factual answers and event information directly in its search engine results, as it continues evolving and enhancing its core product, the company said Friday.

    "These [new features] focus on the efforts we've put in on understanding the Web better, understanding the content on it, not just [matching] keywords," said Noah Weiss, a Google product manager, in an interview.

    For search queries that can be answered with a simple, short fact, such as a country's population, a book's author or the height of a landmark building, Google will in the coming days start delivering a new type of result.

    Nice article Jan as usual. Makes since, cause if I'm not mistaken I think I saw a competitors add on the television having something to do with having a more refined search engine. Or could have been google the add where a child asks a parent a question and they rattle off everything that could be found under that particular question. Fabe
