Just take me to the detail page already ! Jun 18, 2011
By Don Young
I've just finished reading Designing Search what a great book. I love shopping online, nothing beats knowing you're avoiding the drive to the mall, the irritating crowds you can sit at home listen to your favorite music and with coffee in hand get the bargain you always wanted. Well that's the theory anyway. I often find the browsing on sites confusing and so quickly turn to the search box. After all, it's search it'll work like Google right? Wrong! Just as with me by the time the average person gets to using the search function they've already given up on the site navigation so the one thing they desperately need now is a great search experience. All too often that's missing. In this book the author talks the reader through what makes a good search experience. He shows the user the major site search patterns and explains why they improve the user experience. There are contributions from some of the most highly regarded UX folk. This book will become an often reference that will time and time again provide a solution to the tricky problem of site search.
Currently Amazon isn't showing the book contents. I find this very annoying when trying to decide on a book. Take a look at the book contents, I'm sure you'll find something that's relevant to your e-commerce site right now.

The subtle art of search Dec 11, 2011
By G Colborne
Search interfaces are incredibly difficult to get right - they need a great deal of tuning and refining because users expect a kind of magic from them. They're more than just a text box and a list of results, though. A great search interface delivers that 'magic' through a combination of smart algorithms and subtle interface elements that draw the user into refining her search and spotting just the right answer.
This book focusses on the latter - how the interface should look and work to help the user to make the right choices almost unconsciously. Much of the focus is Ecommerce - drawing from the author's experience and examples in this field. I like this because search is crucial to Ecommerce - get it wrong and you lost money. So these are patterns that come from the toughest environment. Yet the advice holds good whether you're designing a document search for an intranet or an online help system.
The approach is clear, the design patterns are well explained and backed up with case studies from the author and some wonderful user interface experts from IBM to small start-ups.
No matter what your project, you'll never be given sufficient time to explore and design the search interface. But with this book at your side, you'll have a massive head start.
 Good Read Nov 02, 2011

I did like this book a lot. It's an interesting topic and the book is good to read. A nice book for Information Architects and User Experience Designers.
A baseline guide that all interaction designers should read Jul 29, 2011
By Christopher
Once in a (very infrequent) while a book comes along that provides its readers with an exceptionally detailed foundational reference on a subject, Designing Search: UX Strategies for eCommerce Success is such a book.
The author shares his considerable experience with the reader taking him/her on a well structured journey through all facets of eCommerce search, a topic that is critical to the success of any mobile eCommerce company. The author provides examples and patterns explaining the when and why of each example and the how via patterns which the reader can instantly take away and incorporate into their own sites.
[Note: I found myself printing out existing designs I have done and marking them up like crazy as I went through the book]
While the book is focused primarily on mobile eCommerce Search I found that the text got me thinking about other areas the patterns could be applied - again it's scaffolding, you not only learn the patterns but why these patterns are chosen.
A nice addition you rarely see in books is a comprehensive bibliography for the examples allowing the reader to delve further into the topic.
This book should/will become a classic on the subject and an often thumbed reference by the reader. If you are a ui/ux practitioner, a developer who wants to know more about what works and why or are a manager who wants/needs a grounding in what your designers are doing this is the book for you.
Designing Search: UX Strategies for eCommerce Success is a combination of great reference and great how-to guide. I think it will make you a better designer and I highly recommend it.
