Abstract
The idea of Information Visualization is to get insights into great amounts of abstract data. Especially document sets found by searching the World Wide Web are a special challenge. The paper gives a short overview on the variety of possible visualizations for this application area. The presented ideas are grouped by using the four phase framework of information seeking. Crucial factors for the success of visualizations are discussed. An approach is presented to use alternative simple visualizations grouped around the traditional result-list, for the usage with a local meta web search engine.Keywords
