Granted, Teoma needs work but perhaps the ranking methods they use which includes link analysis like Google but takes it a step further might be worthy of discussion.

Teoma is a real world application of some of the concepts and ideas from the often discussed but never publicly released IBM search engine, Clever. More about Clever and link analysis in a 1999 Scientific American [cs.cornell.edu] article.

This 2001 Science [cs.cornell.edu] article is also worthy of your attention.
