A visual information seeking system for Web search

In this paper we present the conception and the evaluation of a visual information seeking system for the Web. Our work has been motivated by the lack of good user interfaces assisting the user in searching the Web. The selected visualisations and why they have been chosen are explained in detail. A focus of this paper is on the evaluation of these visualisations as an add-on to the traditional result list presentation.
