But if the results can be mixed efficiently without doubling up the query time then that's awesome.http://ayende.com/156897/raven-suggest-review-options#comment5http://ayende.com/156897/raven-suggest-review-options#comment5Wed, 11 Jul 2012 02:36:20 GMTJames_2JS, I had to google penultimate to figure out what it means. And the answer to that is that it actually depends. In this case, we provide search with typo protection, so if you typed lua instead of lut, you get it. You can actually mix the two together easily enough, and get even better results. The reason it depends is that it really matter what you are doing, what the source data is, etc. In this case, the data is actually randomly generated, so it isn't very meaningful.http://ayende.com/156897/raven-suggest-review-options#comment4http://ayende.com/156897/raven-suggest-review-options#comment4Tue, 10 Jul 2012 11:00:19 GMTHi Ayende, I'm struggling here to see how the final solution produces *better* results than the penultimate one?? The final solution produces "Lut Ezzkdaba Ltd" as its 2nd result, which looks like a worse match than "Luaeocrv B Ltd" and "Luaqesof S Ltd" (from the penultimate version) to me! It actually looks to me like the final solution masks genuine results that are much more likely to be what the user is searching for!

I've posted a few blogs to go along with your one as well: RavenSuggest: The Wrong Approach http://blog.orangelightning.co.uk/2012/07/ravensuggest-wrong-approach/ RavenSuggest: A Better Approach http://blog.orangelightning.co.uk/2012/07/ravensuggest-a-better-approach/ I have also put your suggested changes into the demo code and pushed it to GitHub. I plan to experiment with the code more and see if I can make it even better!
