INFORMATION PROFESSIONALS -- THE RAMBOS OF RESEARCH
The Internet has made us all researchers. And although it's easy
to search on Google and sift through the results, there's a huge
difference between casual queries and professional research.
I consider myself fairly knowledgeable about on-line research,
but after spending 4 days with the pros, I realize how much more
there is to learn.

ASKSAM AT WORK IN THE POWER INDUSTRY
"We were asked to assist a power company in Oregon with their
de-regulation project. Because of de-regulation, changes were
required to many of the major data systems within the company.
We were responsible for developing a Load/Stress test to
simulate a heavy day's processing, in order to see if their
information systems were ready to handle the load.
In projects like these, where information is kept in many
formats, askSam is an extremely powerful and valuable tool.
It is the only tool of its kind that allows sophisticated search
techniques to locate information."
