很牛x(paopaobing(3))

这是他的方法，好象挺容易
Here is how my  google instant Bing Instant works:

1. User starts typing keywords

2. Wait about 100 milliseconds between each key stroke (coz most of the geeks type faster than ajax can handle). And it is not wise to come in between user keystrokes, its like disrespect to the geek who is trying to form his search keyword.

3. When user pauses briefly (just about more than 100 milliseconds), make a call to google bing suggest api to get the suggestions

4. Take the first suggestion and make another call to google bing search api to get actual search results and of course show it on the page

5. That is it friends, you have google bing predicted instant search results.

应该大多数request都到不了server.

google instant strategies:

    * Increase backend server capacity.
    * Add new caches to handle high request rates while keeping results fresh while the web is continuously crawled and re-indexed.
    * Add User-state data to the back-ends to keep track of the results pages already shown to a given user, preventing the same results from being re-fetched repeatedly.
    * Optimize page-rendering JavaScript code to help ensure web browsers could keep up with the rest of the system.

That wouldn't dampen my argument a bit. No one ever said Google Instant is some super advanced programming jewel, it's there mostly for a better user experience. The cost is actually quite high, but Google did it anyways because the internal feedback shows this is a good feature to have.

Now to Yahoo and Bing - Yahoo did invent Instant Search first and have spent every minute reminding people that they did it first since Google Instant is announced, but they never deployed it to production; and yes, some clever programmer at Bing can duplicate the program in one day. But have they pushed this to production? Have they got the guts to do so first? Are their DC efficient enough to accommodate such a spike of search volume?

So I am kind of lost at what this guy wants to prove. Maybe he will have something real to brag about when he integrate this into the real bing.com and see if it can stand the traffic.

Technology is only real

when google implements it,

when microsoft breaks it

or when apple tells us it will change our lives!
