approx.- scopes ~ search source.
- My knowledge of English unfortunately did not allow us to understand this construction properly: ... let's take a look at our digital caps to both Mark Tully & David Callé
- as well as this: Yelp (the hey-cool-places-near-you-foursquare-sucks-by-the-way website)
I would be happy to assist in editing the translation.
Thanks to everyone who looks under the spoiler :)
As part of the
recently announced Smart Search API in Ubuntu 13.04, up to 100 new search sources may appear.
Why so much? Ubuntu hopes that by providing multiple sources for your search, you can find more than what you’re looking for without leaving Dash.

Ubuntu wants to be more useful and more relevant than it currently is - and also faster.
Enable / Disable
Unlike Ubuntu 12.10, these search areas will not be constantly running in the background. They will only “work” if they are necessary to ensure “relevant” results.
If you are online, this decision is made by the “Smart Search Area Service”, which finds out what is relevant, based on user behavior.
Ubuntu call it "relevance crowdsourcing." I will just call Skynet a start.
Most likely, not everyone will need all 100 search sources, but, as the developers say, it will be a simple matter: turn off what you do not need.
But what search areas can we see in Ubuntu 13.04? What results do we expect to see when querying in Dash?
100 search domains - development in process
Mark Tully and David Callé - this pair of prolific developers are responsible for most of the lenses and search areas already available and presented below.
This list continues to grow, so do not take it exhaustive at the moment. In addition, some search areas for one reason or another will not be loaded by default.
Here are some of the services we can expect to search by clicking on Super this year ...
