1. A method for signifying information objects comprising the steps: obtaining a plurality of information objects; providing the plurality of information objects to an indexer for signification; providing the indexer with a deliberately ambiguated signifier prompt, wherein the indexer signifies each of the information objects by responding to the deliberately ambiguated signifier prompt for each information object; wherein the deliberately ambiguated signifier prompt comprises a prompt wherein the response is an indicated position along a continuum having a plurality of labeled points, and wherein none of the labeled points comprise a desired response; and storing each of the information objects with the indexer's response to the deliberately ambiguated signifier prompt.
