	FIRL Online Resources Searching for Information

Search with the snark - Pick your favorite search engine by clicking the choice menu.
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~jab/snark/
You won't see anything if your browser is not javascript enabled.

Deja News - Search old Usenet news postings for specific phrases. You can also post from this site.
http://www.dejanews.com

Dogpile - a multi-engine search tool - The nice thing about this one is that you can limit the search time.
http://www.dogpile.com/

Alta Vista
http://www.altavista.digital.com

Beaucoup! - Indexed by subject.
http://www.beaucoup.com/

SavvySearch - SavvySearch offers the advantage of a single location and common user interface for querying many diverse databases.
http://www.cs.colostate.edu/~dreiling/smartform.html

Zippo - Access old posts or posts from newsgroups not on your server. Zippo also provides inexpensive use of its mail server.
http://www.zippo.com

Reduce your search time by considering the nature of the information you seek. Are you looking for a definition, a fixed idea? A piece of specialized but commonly-known information? Use indexed information, such as an indexed list or a database. Are you interested in researching and comparing many instances of similar information? Are you interested in obscure or unique information , or information likely to come in many different flavors or to be stored in a distributed fashion? Use a search engine.

For example: You might use an indexed list to learn about symptoms of a particular condition. Such information is not likely to vary from site to site.

On the other hand, you might use a search engine to learn about various treatments for a particular condition. Such information is likely to vary from site to site, since it is the nature of people to disagree on dogma.

(Does that make sense?)

	FIRL Offline Literature

The printed word is awesome. All hail Gutenberg! Printed words require no electricity. You can read books and magazines anywhere, and you don't have to worry about carpal tunnel. The web is flashy and information-rich, but it has pitiful bandwidth and requires special equipment. Consider the following exchange, overheard at my former employer:

In other words, put the data on tape and send that. It's still a material world, baby!
