The document discusses tips for improving search functionality in applications. It recommends that all data be made searchable (Rule 1) and to avoid structured search interfaces in favor of free-text search (Rule 2). Other tips include predicting search results to help users (Rule 4), clustering similar results (Rule 5), and using full-text search tools like Solr that can provide fast search over large amounts of text-based data. Solr improves search by allowing for full-text search, sorting, highlighting, faceting, and has basic spatial search capabilities for points data. The overall message is that search is important and these tips can help users locate data more easily.
