Who judges what "good" search results are?
Mary Ellen Bates and Chris Sherman show how info pros and researchers differ from search engine optimizers in evaluating search results. For research, recall is better and two good matches on the first page is a good result. For SEOs, 80% of the first page should be useful: more emphasis on precision. Good reminder about variations in search requirements.
