Description:
In this paper, the idea of ubiquitous information retrieval is presented in a storytelling manner. Starting from a rough review of information retrieval system usage, some empirical hints on IR in everyday life are given. Ch. 4 explores the heterogeneity of interaction with IRS for one day in the life of a (common search engine) user. In ch. 5 summarizes these observations and suggests research approaches for modelling information retrieval as an essential component of interaction in the information society.
