Different communities use "metasearch" and "federated search" to mean exactly exchanged meanings. So I don't know what YOU mean by "'metasearch' instead of real 'federated search'", Jakob, heh. I prefer the terms: * Broadcast search * Aggregated index But some people use "metasearch" to mean the former and some the latter; some people use "federated search" to mean the former, and some the latter. Both uses are quite popular. So I stick to terms above which I think are harder to confuse.
