Abstract

In this talk I will give a brief retrospective on Web Information Management, and will discuss some of the key challenges for the future. I will not give a survey of all work in the area; instead I will give my personal perspective based on work in the InfoLab at Stanford. In particular, I will touch on our lab's work on crawling, indexing, ranking, personalization, and more recently on spam detection and social networking.
