Preface In the last ten years or so I ve been fascinated with the Web. And since the Web started getting large enough to require organization, I ve been fascinated with how that organization has evolved. From very basic text pages and Big Red Buttons That Don t Do Anything, we ve moved to extensive databases, search engines, and online information collections of all sorts. Since I wrote the Official Netscape Guide to Internet Research in 1996, the landscape has changed dramatically. In 1996 it was possible to maintain a "big picture" idea of resources available online: even if you couldn t track down every last one you had a sense of what was available, where the gaps were, and so on. Now that s impossible. The Internet is growing too quickly. But hey, these are the kinds of problems you want to have, right? A rapidly growing collection of information, with a rapidly growing set of tools for dealing with it. In 1996 I decided I was crazy about search engines. I loved experimenting with them, learning the syntaxes, trying to figure out how to make them work best. I m still crazy about them. I m almost as crazy about trying to teach other people to use the search engines, to help them take advantage of the wealth of information that s appearing online. Thanks for buying this book. If you, too, get bitten by the search engine bug, join me over at ResearchBuzz.com. There I ll try to keep you up to date with developments in the search engine world. Thanks for reading.
