Other Search Tools Try these if the others don't get it. Try this One for a Friend Try out infoMarket, which is being developed by a team that includes one of my dear friends (check out his personal home page, complete with his recipies for chocolate treats and his professional-quality photographs). InfoMarket is intended to be a single-point-of-contact for multiple parallel internet searches; this service is free, and additional sources will be added in May. In addition, infoMarket will provide access to documents that are not currently available over the internet because of the copyright and royalties concerns of their owners, thus making a massive quantity of legacy information available on-line for the first time and probably establishing infoMarket as the most comprehensive source of information available on the internet. Suscribers to the service will be billed for access to the intellectual-property-rights material on a "pay-per-view" basis, and the requested information will be provided to them through an encrypted envelope [or "Cryptolope" (tm)].
