If you didn't find it on Google, that doesn't mean it's
not on the Web. General search engines like Google skim the surface of the
web. If you need to seek further, maybe you need another type of search
engine, one that specializes in your topic. Or maybe you need a list of
the best sites for your needs. For this, you start with sites such as
those below:
- Beaucoup
Tired of almost finding the information you want and then being asked for
money to get the facts? Beaucoup lists only "free information"
sites (except for the "Shopping" section.)
- Digital
Librarian An
outstanding list of useful sites and search tools, organized by subject.
- GeniusFind
A great list of specialized search engines and sites, organized by topic.
- Infomine
A special search engine for scholarly information and topics, maintained by UC
Riverside.
- Internet
Archive Search the past... of the internet. Pages you thought
were gone, archived here.
- StumbleUpon
A wiki-style site that produces clusters of information based on your
interests
