With the major search engines claiming coverage of over 20 billion web pages in their databases, it is becoming increasingly difficult to locate relevant information. Karen Blakeman introduces this workshop which looks at recent developments from Google, the alternatives and the new kids on the block. Delegates will have ample opportunity to try advanced search techniques and compare search engines. Help on tracking down audio, video and podcasts of news and interviews is included. A significant part of the day will be practical sessions; exercises will be provided but delegates are free to try out searches of their own.
