Excellent Search Tool/Vivisimo Helps Narrow Net Search for Info (AP) Downloaded and used the Vivisimo "mini-bar' search tool which allows users to get instant access to Vivísimo's award-winning meta-search. This mini toolbar takes up a minimal amount of space (less than 7 cm) and coexists nicely with other toolbars without overcrowding your browser. Do a search with Google, Yahoo, MSN, etc. and if you're not satisfied, one more click with the query catcher feature which gets you clustered results on the very same query. AP - As wonderful as Internet search engines are, they have a pretty big flaw. They often deliver too much information, and a lot of it isn't quite what we're looking for. Who really bothers to read the dozens of pages of results that Google generates? [Yahoo! News - Technology] 9:08:41 AM    comment []
