Searching the Net

There are several ways to find information - trawling or fishing. Trawling is just looking for a piece of information using a single word, whilst fishing is specifically looking for something by using carefully designed statements.

This page has two links that use various search strings and scripts to find particular information on t'Internet. It's a bit more than just using speech marks and plus signs to get what you want. You can find some search tips here.
