Google is my middle name as JR has said once or twice. (not in so many words)

have you come across Every Click? It raises money for charity by its searches - perhaps we should get one of the CH charities listed?

Don't ask someone who works in information services about this one! Oh, that would be me then
Search engines, in particular Google, are relied on by many of our students for scholarly research. While these engines may have a mass of material, it is not necessarily good material. Google does not cover most books or scholarly journals, and the area over intellectual property is particulary contentious.

We use 'Jeeves', although my Butler is now defunct. They have a new front page. Still very good, though.
