Abstract

In this chapter we provide our personal vision of what could be the next generation of Web search engines, outlining the main research challenges that derive from it. This vision is based on a single premise: people do not really want to search, they want to get tasks done. We motivate our work by the current trends in the Web and, in particular, Web search.
