Abstract
A search engine compares entered search terms to an index of terms signifying a specific or local intent. If an entered term matches term in the index, then the search engine identifies and outputs information corresponding to the specific or local intent. Terms to include in the index of terms can be identified by monitoring the searching behavior of a set of users.
