FAST Search for SharePoint Query Logger

Inspired by a blog post by Neil I created a log monitor which will allow you to view and save the xml returned from the internal QR server in FAST. Very useful for debugging queries. You can find the tool at http://fs4splogger.codeplex.com.

Search Features vs. Security

One of the most popular search features on the web is the query suggestion feature, or a derivative, related queries.

Presentation at Norwegian SharePoint Community

I did a presentation at the Norwegian SharePoint Community (#NSPUG) meet-up yesterday. The presentation and code samples can be downloaded at http://cid-9ecc38025e460fc4.office.live.com/browse.aspx/.Public/%5ENNSPUG%202011-02-15

The presentation covers how you can utilize FS4SP as a data retrieval API outside the regular search page. The samples are simple, but shows the idea of expanding your toolbox with search as an API.
