Google Search Personalized in Beta

Google said it is moving personalized search out of the labs and into beta mode, offering Net surfers more tailored results to their online queries as the search giant looks for new ways to attract and retain users.

Google said anyone with a Google account would now be able to use the beta version of the product. Previously, it was open only to those who visited the Google labs page, where the company showcases projects that are moving closer to launching.

As the name suggests, personalized search refers to a search engine�s ability to pull up results based on the queries the user has entered in the past. When people type in ambiguous keywords, which could refer to several different things like �jaguar� or �delta,� an existing search history could allow the engine to pull up more relevant results.

The feature not only can help Google retain consumers but it also gives it bonus points with advertisers. By delivering ads based on a person�s search history, Google will be in a position to serve up more relevant ads.

How WLAN Transforms Industrial Automation

The industrial sector is on the eve of a wireless transformation, driven by an urgent demand for greater network capacity, reliability, and deterministic performance. Historically, manufacturers and mission-critical operations have relied on wired networks — favoring their predictability — because spectrum congestion in legacy 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands limited confidence in wireless for operational technology (OT) environments. However, with the introduction and rapid adoption of the 6GHz spectrum, compounded by significant advances in Wi-Fi standards, industrial facilities are now poised to embrace wireless LANs as the backbone for automation and digital innovation. Industrial WLAN Market Development Recent research from ABI Research forecasts that over 70 percent of industrial-grade wireless LAN access points (WLAN APs) shipped in 2030 will support the 6GHz band. This is a leap from 2 percent in 2023, highlighting a rapid and profound technological shift. The market for ruggedized indust...
