Scirus: Search over 200 million science-specific sites
================================================================
The Surf Report - vol. 65 www.askSam.com
================================================================
Tuesday, February 28, 2006
Search engines are all different in the Web sites they cover,
and the way they classify these Web sites. I recently came
across Scirus, a search engine that focuses only on Web pages
containing scientific and medical content.
Also in this issue, a brand new eBook of medical terminology, and
a special offer on Counterspy, our favorite anti-spyware
application.
It's a great time to visit Florida - reserve a spot for our
March askSam training class. Spaces are limited.

1) Scirus - Search over 200 million science-specific sites
Scirus is the most comprehensive science-specific search engine
on the Internet. Driven by the latest search engine technology,
Scirus searches over 200 million science-specific Web pages,
enabling you to quickly:
. Pinpoint scientific, scholarly, technical and medical data.
. Find latest reports, peer-reviewed articles, patents, pre
prints and journals that other search engines miss.
. Offer unique functionalities designed for scientists and
researchers.
Scirus...
. Filters out non-scientific sites. For example, if you search
on REM, Google finds the rock group - Scirus finds information
on sleep, among other things
. Finds peer-reviewed articles such as PDF and PostScript files,
which are often invisible to other search engines.
. Searches the most comprehensive combination of web
information, preprint servers, digital archives, repositories
and patent and journal databases. Scirus goes deeper than the
first two levels of a Web site, thereby revealing much more
relevant information.
