Currently there are lots of discussions about search enhancements for SharePoint. But by far the most common and effective method of finding information is browsing a structured classification system (taxonomy).

To categorize any SharePoint item or document directly with centrally managed taxonomy-based cross-site tree-style categories manually or automatically you can use taxonomy extensions, that are offered by several vendors, e.g.

This gives a great search enhancement too.

Jess...Excellent article, however there are two points that I thought were a bit off base. The first was the title of the article. The word Extends implies an enhancement to the SharePoint search engine. ISYS and other companies that "extend" SharePoint search actually replace the technology. A true extension would leverage the core components of SharePoint Search such as the index, index engine, relevance ranking algorithm, etc.

The second point, which was probably a typo was in the number of SharePoint users being about a million. My company, BA-Insight, offers a true extension to SharePoint Search and is approaching the one million user mark. According to Microsoft, the number is about 100 million.

Cheers!
