I've put together a selected list of full-text papers (and a few others not available online at the moment) that are set for presentation on the Search and Data Mining track at the Twelfth International World Wide Web Conference next month.
I hope you find it useful.

some more reading for in the plane to Boston..
I always wonder how much protection effect it really has for a Search engine to go for patents on search engine related algorithms.
How difficult is it to implement a variation of an algo, and how difficult is it to check what your competition is really using?
As a webmaster with an obvious interest in search engines workings, I find most valuable information on where algo's might go or be, in patents and university research papers.
(BTW - nice site -:))
