Metaphor has proven a very exciting area of AI research for me. The metaphorical, for being the opposite of what computers are -- literal --
takes the burgeoning AI of the Google Spider into an uncharted direction heuristically and increases its power to serve our inmformation retrieval needs.

Here's a simple example I just whipped to show you how you can Teach The Google Spider Metaphor.

The basic elements are...

1. An image I've just indexed for bridge and for profitlabinc:



2. A high-ranking image for "spectrum"




3. And this:

A SPECTRUM IS A BRIDGE


Simple as that.


The spider feels pretty confident the above image is a spectrum, and since my decently ranked site has established the above image as a bridge, as related to my company name, and is fairly new in the index, we create for it the opportunity to enlarge its "sense" of what this image could be about. Hereafter, we also establish a connection in the Spider's mind between "bridges" and "spectrums" -- it will probably find others, and each time say "A-ha!"
