Search Engines

There are more search engines than Google on the Internet. There's even a webpage that tracks search engines.

Today I posted twenty search engine bookmarks to Delicious. If you are interested in trying out other search engines go to Delicious and enter "Search" "Engine" or "SearchEngine." The link to my bookmarks on Delicious is the last line in the right-hand sidebar of Henthorn Genealogy News.

If you know of other useful search engines let me know and I can added them to Delicious.

Google Searches

Here's a Google Search Tip. There might be some useful genealogy PDF files available about a surname that you are working on. To find out enter the following in the Google search box (where "surname" is replaced with the surname of interest.) Enter the word "genealogy" to focus the search on our topic of interest.

filetype:pdf surname genealogy

You can search for other file types too. For example, replace "pdf" with "rtf" to search for Rich Text Files. Get the idea?
