A method of organizing information in which the search activity of a user is monitored and such activity is used to organize articles in a subsequent search. The invention operates by assigning scores to articles under key term components in an index. As users enter search queries and select articles, the scores are altered according to, among other things, the amount of time spent inspecting an article, whether the article is the last one inspected, how many articles are ranked higher than the article, how many articles have been previously inspected by the user, and whether an advertising banner was selected by the user. The scores are then used in subsequent searches to organize the articles that match a search query. As millions of people use the Internet, type in millions of search queries, and display or select the many articles available over the Internet, the present invention uses this search activity to rank information available over the Internet through an evolutionary process. The invention includes additional embodiments which incorporate category key terms and rating key terms.
