FINDING THINGS...

    Because people with access to computers that serve websites can put up all manner of junk (Try this site to send a Valentine, for instance: QPID.) , it can be both fun and difficult to find interesting/useful sites.

    You can search for various subjects/people/insitutions through one of the general search engines on the Web. The compiled list of such mechanisms can be found off the Net Search button near the top of your Netscape window.

    One of these search engines is especially thorough, searching many pages on the Web for specific words: AltaVista. Another search engine that works like this is HotBot. If you are looking for something specific, try their SuperSearch.

    Most search engines, however, work by having people submit their site to a specific engine. This allows for searches by concept or category. Excite is not bad with concepts. Yahoo is the old standard of organizing submitted sites by category. Now there is even a site for helping with library research. If you want to put something into these search engines try Submit It, which will let you send your info to many engines at once.
