Beyond giving me a warm and fuzzy feeling, it may even drive book sales!

Thanks for the this – very useful observations. We’ve had the opportunity to deploy the major faceted search technologies on behalf of some major retailers. More recently, we’ve endeavoured to leverage faceted search for content-rich sites. The implementation challenges differ significantly and i believe this might be one reason why content-driven sites have been slower to adopt the technology. In particular, the difference between structured and unstructured content makes implementing effective faceted search on top of a CMS more challenging.

You might be interested in our whitepaper – Six Tips for Delivering Faceted Navigation within a CMS-Driven Website – available at http://bit.ly/qIJyM It captures much of what we’ve learned in these deployments.
