Abstract

The basic steps to build one are fairly simple: * Sign up * Pick a search engine name * Choose a list of sites * Add the sites * Publish That quickly, a search engine can be created to search a specific portion of the web, such as local government sites, childcare resources, or historical archives. It is easy to create a simple customized vertical search engine as well as support much more advanced capabilities (see the Google AJAX search API article). Try these tools and tips and build a customized search engine or two for your own users to help them find more targeted and relevant web information.

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

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

Rez. in: Online-Mitteilungen 2007, H.89, S.17-18 (M. Katzmayr): "Eine der Herausforderungen, der sich Web-Trainerinnen regelmäßig ausgesetzt sehen, besteht in der Kurzlebigkeit der Recherchetools und ihrer ständig wechselnden Funktionalitäten. Wer spricht heute noch von den Suchmaschinen AltaVista oder Lycos? (Hoffentlich) niemand mehr. Diese Dynamik in der Internetbranche wirkt allerdings auf viele potentielle Vortragende abschreckend, scheint es doch ein unzumutbarer Aufwand zu sein, sich laufend über neue Entwicklungen zu informieren. Wer darunter leidet oder zum ersten Mal eine Webschulung vorbereitet, sollte einen Blick in das vorliegende Buch werfen. Dessen Autor, Greg. R. Notess ist im Bereich des praktischen Web Information Retrieval kein Unbekannter: der Auskunftsbibliothekar an der Montana State University hat sich als Betreiber der Website Search Engine Showdown (http://www.search engineshowdown.com), vielgereister Vortragender, erfahrener Didaktiker und regelmäßiger Autor der Zeitschrift Online einen exzellenten Ruf in der Internet-Gemeinde erworben. Nun liegen seine Kenntnisse zur Vermittlung der Webrecherche auch als Monographie vor, die sich an Leiterinnen von Webschulungen richtet. Zum einen finden sich darin eine Vielzahl an didaktischen und organisatorischen Hinweisen zur Planung und Durchführung von Webschulungen. So werden z.B. die verschiedenen Typen von Kursteilnehmerinnen beschrieben und welchen Problemen sich Anfängerinnen in der Webrecherche in der Regel gegenübersehen. Es werden die verschiedenen Arten von Schulungen (Frontalvorträge, Schulungen mit Übungsmöglichkeiten und Online-Tutorials) mit ihren jeweiligen Vor- und Nachteilen sowie idealtypischen Einsatzmöglichkeiten dargestellt, weiters werden Hinweise zu Zielsetzungen und Länge von Kursen gegeben.
Die anderen Kapitel verweisen auf den Inhalt von Webschulungen. Neben der wichtigen Diskussion von terminologischen Fragen - die Fähigkeit zur Differenzierung von Suchmaschine, Metasuchmaschine und Verzeichnis ist immerhin unverzichtbare Grundlage der-Internetkompetenz - wird auf allgemeine Suchfunktionen wie Phrasensuche, Suchoperatoren, Feldsuche etc. eingegangen. Zwei Kapitel befassen sich mit den möglichen Themenschwerpunkten von Webschulungen: als besonders wesentlich werden von Notess unter anderem die Ausformulierung der Fragestellung, der Hinweis auf die Vielfalt der zur Verfügung stehenden Recherchewerkzeuge, die differenzierte Verwendung von Suchmaschinen und Verzeichnissen und die Bewertung der im Web aufgefundenen Information genannt. Durch diese Auswahl wird (im Buch leider nur implizit) verdeutlicht, dass hier ein wesentlicher Schlüssel zur Bewältigung der eingangs erwähnten Problemstellung liegt: durch eine Konzentration auf diese "zukunftssicheren" Themen - sie unterliegen keinen kurzfristigen Änderungen - ist auch die Vorbereitung von Webkursen und die Aktualisierung der Lehrunterlagen ein überschaubarer Aufwand. Eine Strategie, der übrigens auch das vorliegende Buch folgt: es beschränkt sich auf allgemeine Konzepte und Herangehensweisen und vermeidet eine allzu detailreiche Darstellung der gegenwärtig gerade angesagten Tools und Web-Plattformen. Dezidiert aktuell will nur das Kapitel zur Auflistung und kurzen Beschreibung der derzeit wichtigsten Universalsuchmaschinen sein; es ist zum Zeitpunkt des Schreibens dieser Rezension bereits veraltet. Der sehr umfangreiche Anhang enthält neben einem Verzeichnis relevanter Internetquellen eine hilfreiche Fundgrube an Musterbeispielen von Lehrunterlagen zu verschiedensten Webthemen. Ein knappes Literaturverzeichnis und ein sorgfältig gearbeitetes Register beschließen den Band. Fazit: Jene, die vor oder am Beginn ihrer Schulungstätigkeit stehen, sollten diesen durchwegs gelungenen Band unbedingt zu Rate ziehen, und selbst erfahrene Vortragende können sicher das eine oder andere Detail zur Verbesserung ihrer Unterrichtsgestaltung darin finden. Da ein lebendiger und leicht verständlicher Stil gewählt wurde, ist es auch Leserlnnen mit nicht-englischer Muttersprache möglich, das Buch zügig durchzulesen, wobei aufgrund der eingestreuten Anekdoten die Lektüre recht kurzweilig ausfällt. Schließlich ist auch dem Verlag Information Today zu gratulieren: vom Inhaltsverzeichnis über Gliederung und Schriftbild bis hin zum Register ist dieses Buch ein Musterbeispiel guter und zugleich preiswerter verlegerischer Arbeit."

Abstract

The U.S. federal government has been a major publisher on the Internet. Its many agencies have used the Internet, and the Web most recently, to provide access to a great quantity of their information output. Several agencies such as the Library of Congress and the Government Printing Office have taken a leading role in both providing information and offering finding aids, while other endeavors such as FirstGov and subject gateways offer other avenues of access. A brief look back at the history of the government on the Web and the continuing concerns and challenges show how the government is not only a major content provider on the Internet but also a source for the organization of the content.

Abstract

Offers advice on Internet search techniques and strategies. These include going straight to the information source, guessing URLs, and developing strategies for when to use subject directories (product searches, broad topics, and current events) and search engines (unique keywords, phrase searching, field searching, and limits), a multiple search strategy, and chopping off part of the URL when sites con not be found

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

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
