The present invention provides methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing techniques for searching and ranking linked information sources. The techniques include receiving multiple content items from a corpus of content items; receiving digital signatures each made by one of multiple agents, each digital signature associating one of the agents with one or more of the content items; and assigning a score to a first agent of the multiple agents, wherein the score is based upon the content items associated with the first agent by the digital signatures.

Agent rank

Data is identified from one or more data sources, where the data is associated with at least one structured document. Data sets contained within the at least one structured document are extracted, and one or more record items are added to a searchable database, where the one or more record items correspond to the extracted data sets.
