Alternative Search Methods
by Pranav Pramod
Here is the next post in the Adjacent Possible series: Alternative Search Methods - Generic word search in applications makes it super hard to find something you vaguely remember. Depicted below are 4 different types of searches that a user could use to find content that seems hard to find. Fuzzy (When you roughly know the shape of the word) Word Family (When you know the exact word but is not sure what form it is in) Phonetic (When you roughly know what the sound of the word is. This is particularly useful for video/audio transcripts) Synonyms (When you know what the meaning of the word is) Check out this and other concepts over at: https://prabros.com/adjacent-possible/alternative-search-methods Please feel free to let me know your feedback on the designs!
