Hi All,

Currently have some questions about searching an internal directory
of 20,000+ people. 

There's some thinking that a Google appliance utilizing a white bar
with rich search capability (parameters / facets on particular
attributes) would be enough to narrow down to who you're looking
for.

There's an opposing thought that an advanced search is required
Upfront for searching by a particular first name, last name, company
name, etc.

We don't have capacity to build both. Also, testing search
functionality is *not* possible until the very end of release which
naturally limits any actions to be taken based on results of user
testing. 

While I've been observing here for a while, I don't recall any
discussions on best practices for approaching people search and
curious if anyone has some direction and thinking here? 

Much appreciated,
Vincent
