Search Engines

 

Google Images.  A relatively new feature of this excellent search engine is the "Images" option.  By entering your request and then clicking on the Images link, you retrieve only pictures.  Excellent tool for struggling readers with imaging difficulties or others who find the Internet's labyrinth of hypertext a little daunting.

Metasearch Engines.  Ever think your search engine may have missed a few sites?  You're right.  Google, for instance, captures only 42% of indexed web pages.  Try one of the new super engines that combine regular search engines and give you a single list.
