An essential guide for anyone who conducts research on the Internet—including librarians, teachers, students, business professionals, and writers—this fully revised handbook details what users must know to take full advantage of Internet search tools and resources. From emerging search tools Ask.com and Windows Live to standbys Google and Yahoo!, the major search engines and their myriad of services are thoroughly discussed. Recent additions to the Internet realm—RSS feeds, podcasts, alert services, wikis, and blogs—are explained, as well as tried-and-true search tools, including web directories, newsgroups, and image resources. For those with little to moderate searching experience, friendly, easy-to-follow guidelines to the world of Web research are provided, while experienced searchers will discover new perspectives on content and techniques.

What Customers Say About The Extreme Searcher's Internet Handbook: A Guide for the Serious Searcher:
|
|
This book is more about internet searches rather than people searching using the internet. If you are looking for a book to help you with your online searches, this book is very detailed and full of information. I would say it is the encyclopedia on this topic.
This book is easy to read and very helpful. It is great for novices and experienced web users. It lists resources and easy tips. Definately worth buying.
I have been using the internet for many years, but this book taught me things that I didn't know. Using the links on the book website enabled me to quickly go to pages and learn as I read. It's really a great tool for students learning to do research papers.
I bought this book as a textbook for an Electronic Information Retrieval course at school. I have found that this is an excellent resource for anyone wanting to learn how to get more out of their Internet and Database searches. This is a must have for anyone needing to do research.
This resource should be on every serious searcher's shelf next to Chris Sherman's book(s)and Find It Online. Gary Price updates his website to supplement the chapters in the written book, which is very helpful. Price takes a slightly different approach to Sherman, which helps to find resources which might not be self-apparent from Sherman's books. I can't imagine being without either this tool or those of Price's colleague (Sherman).
