This sounds interesting. As far as I am aware, search interfaces are increasingly deployed instead of hierarchical structures (just take the loss of the classic Windows Start Menu as an example). You suggest that this is unergonomic, which I, from a personal taste, would tend to agree. Do you have a source for the "productivity studies" you refer to? I would like to skim through them and see if I can cite them the next time someone wants me to convince to use a search-based interface. -quintus -- Dipl.-Jur. M.
