Title: Searching the Web: Dealing with Visible and Invisible Content

Description: Examines the practices and tools for finding business information by using global search engines. The strengths and weaknesses of the top 6-10 services are outlined, along with specific usage tips and several desktop tools.

The rest is hidden in six types of Web 'dark-matter' and often accounts for the more valuable business information. Resources for invisible content are surveyed.
