11 years ago It'd be good if the description hinted at the 'serendipitous' bit or the randomness of the results page as it's not as straightforward as a normal search results page, but the URL can do some of that work.

11 years ago Has anyone had any further thoughts about this? What about 'discoveries' ?

11 years ago If there are no further comments by the end of Monday I think that counts as 'lazy consensus' to go ahead with that change!

11 years ago And I don't think anyone on the PM/Outreach team has time to address it right now (judging on the call I'm on now) so let's go with /discoveries

11 years ago Just to chime in to say that I support /discoveries. Good call, all!
Yes, thanks for adding this!
I was hoping we could get some input from the outreach team on something that fit with the branding and metaphors we're using overall. From the technical perspective, restful URLs should describe resources, so it would be best if we can come up with a term that fits our other content/terms/metaphor that also works as a collection of resources (e.g., if & when we add capability to save and link to results).
Right now changing this should be easy and relatively harmless since you can't save or reload the results page; we should probably just add a redirect from the old stash url to the site home page since I've seen a few people tweet it as a link.
