TheHotMap.com is an example of a next-generation Web search interface, wherein users are able to take an active role in the Web search process. Information that can assist searchers in their Web search tasks is presented in a visual manner. The system supports user interaction both during the query refinement process, as well as the search results exploration process. This paper describes the features of TheHotMap.com; usage log analysis illustrates the benefits of supporting flexible interaction within a single unified Web search interface.
