Abstract: In spite of their size, the major Web indexes are not comprehensive. Considers approaches carrying out comprehensive searches, highlighting their advantages and disadvantages. In the single search tool approach, users search the largest of the databses one by one, using the command language uniqe to each to increase the precision of the esearch. In the megasearch approach, search engines use 1 form that simultaneously seands a single query to a number of search engines and then presents the results. Inference Find, Dogpile and MetaFind are examples of good metasearch engines

Abstract: Internet Newsgroup archives on services such as DejaNews offer important sources of information that may not be found elsewhere online. Describes the content of the DejaNews Database which goes back to 1995 and covers more than 14,000 newsgroups. There are 2 search options: quick search and power search. Most Web search engines offer links to DejaNews, but AltaVista offers a smaller alternative and supplement to DejaNews. Reference.COM also offers a searchable archive, as well as a useful current awareness service which allows setting up multiple searches under the user profile tab

Abstract: Let us sit upon the ground and tell sad stories of the death of ... search engines. That's the gist of this postmortem on the search engines of yore, many quite popular at the time, their names still familiar to our ear. The author, ending on a positive note, points to a list of survivors but still you wonder what will happen if Google ever tanks or goes the "pay-for-positioning" route. Stranger things have happened

Abstract

Internet software vendors are now offering commercial products that not only queries multiple search engines simultaneously, but allows the user to sort results, remove duplicates and verify the available of the links. They run from the user's own computer. Evaluates the search capabilities, database coverage, post-processing, sorting and access limitations and other problems of: Internet Fast Find from Symantec, EchoSearch from Iconovex, WebCompass from Quarterdeck, and WebSeeker from ForeFront Group

Abstract: Compares WWW search engines to each other in terms of database size and overlap between the largest of them. Compares: AltaVista, Excite, HotBot, Infoseek, Lycos, Magellan, the Open Text index and WebCrawler. HotBot consistently finds more pages than any of the others. Considers how availability of hits, duplication and overlap affects evaluation of database size

Abstract

WWW search engines are not comprehensive in their searches. They do not search: Adobe PDF file or other formatted files, registration files, and data sets. Basic search strategies can give access to some of the hidden content. 2 databases are also available to provide access to the hidden information. Excite's News Tracker searches a database of selected online publications. ATI databases from PLS, Inc. presents access to a variety of Internet accessible databases that may require membership or the payment of a registration fee
