UKNM: research for a feature... :)

[Jo Chipchase]

At risk of incurring the wrath of certain folk... heh heh heh...


...I'm writing a feature about search engines for 'Internet' .  It will

focus on which search engines are best for finding particular types of

information and try to identify the most *effective* search engines.


Amongst other resources, I'll be looking at: Yahoo, Ask Jeeves, Dogpile,

Google, Northern Lights, Alta Vista, Lycos ...and a whole host of UK-based

engines.


I'm after your comments on:

* the way in which search engines work.

* recommendations for search engines that are effective for finding

particular types of content.

* valid criticism of certain search engines.

* anecdotes about finding something unusual or elusive using a particular

search engine.

* problems with submitting sites to major search engines that could

adversely influence the breadth of content they index.


Cheers m'dears.



Jo.
