This page is dedicated to providing our students
with the information they need to be successful students.
Search Engines |
| InfoSeek: One of the largest search engines for the Web; it attempts to find documents that best match the words and phrases in your query. InfoSeek searches plain language requests, therefore boolean operators are not necessary. |
| Lycos: This is another of the largest WSP's, and covers the Web plus text-only resources such as Gopher menus, FTP sites, UseNet groups. To use the Lycos Catalog, you must select among one of several identical indexes, fill out a form with the subject you are looking for, and jump via the links given. You can change the number of default hits from one of the links on the Lycos Index Page. |
| Web Crawler: WebCrawler keeps only an index of Web pages and is less extensive than Lycos in generating new sites each day. Type the subject in the provided form field, and set the maximum number of hits. |
| Yahoo: Unlike WebCrawler and Lycos, Yahoo does not have an automatic program that searches the Web, and adds sites to its database. Yahoo's sites come from submissions by Web Page authors and professional Web surfers. Click the Search button, enter the subject, and check or uncheck the searching options. |
| MetaCrawler is a metasearch engine. This means that it has no local database; it operates entirely by querying other search engines. In order for your site to appear in search output, it must be indexed by one or more of the underlying search engines. |
