Here are some Internet
retrieval sites you may want to try. Remember, each search tool is different,
so if you don't find what you are looking for in one, try another. And, yes,
there is a difference between subject directories and search engines.
Tip: check
out the search tool's searching hints to narrow your search.
A
subject directory is a subject catalog to Web sites prepared by people
who evaluate the web site, decide what is is about, and list it in the proper
category.
Search
engines index the text-contents of files at computers connected to the
Internet, and present us with an interface for searching the databases; the
indexed information is gathered by a machine, called a robot, spider,
wanderer, or webcrawler.
