What makes it possible for us to find the stuff we need to know? Search engines.

What role will libraries play in a world whose information is ruled by the web? How is the web organized? Who controls its contents, and how do they do it? How do search engines work?

An online marketer or site designer, whose career exists because of the web? Whoever you are: if you care about information, this book will open your eyesand make you blink.
