Where can I find some information

[neo_maya]

Hi Everyone,

 

I think at least once, some of you may have felt the same way as I do when I try to seach for some information. I try to search something with google and it does show me some links. But out of those thousands of links I can't seem to find one link that would provide me with all the details. What the site does is that it directs me to another link. I mean suppose I searched for evolution. What I would like to see is not just a page or two but an entire e-book on evolution. I mean is it just me or all of you are sick of travelling from one page to another, or even worse, one site to another!!!

 

I mean wouldn't it be nice to see that you searched for - the impacts of nuclear bomb - and instead of only getting information about the impact you get to know how to make one?

 

Do these sites really exist ? And if they do, How can I reach them?

Please Help.

Google is your friend, try phrasing the queries slightly differently. Imagine what the document you are looking for will describe, and search for the words that the author is likely to use.

 

Instead of querying ‘the impacts of nuclear bomb’, put in what you mean. If you mean the force of the impact, type that. If you mean the fallout from a Nuclear Winter, ask with those words in the query.

 

Otherwise, there are Libraries out there you know.

 

Or you could just try and find a govenment body that investigates what you are interested in and visit the website. NASA, Universitys, Physics labs all have webspace's!

Hi,

 

Thanks.

 

It was my fault , I couldn't express myself. What I meant was that - suppose - I am searching for black hole ; now, I have no idea what this is, so if I could get everything about space and other related topics in a plain doc or pdf format, then I wouldn't have to go through all those links. Then I will be able to download the whole file and read it sometime later.

 

And what's the meaning of having net connection if you have to go to libraries?

 

And yes of course, google has always been a friend and always will be................. but the question remains how can I make it my best friend .................But then again, I think it is my fault that I can't make it work the way I want it to.

 

But still it doesn't solve my problem - where can I get everything I want without having to leave my cave ?

the use of quotes helps too ie/

 

[ "black hole" astronomy ] in the search box

[Dudde]

that's right, it searches for that stuff specifically

 

I think YT's pretty much summed it up

 

not bad for a hippy freak don'tchya think?

[YT2095]

Oi, less of the "Hippy" thank you

[Dudde]

I dunno....that picture looks like something straight outta the 60's to me...sorta reminds me of a friend back in Moses Lake, who was one of the biggest hippies I knew (he didn't act like it, and he always called me hippy..that commie)

EDIT: that reminds me of this homeless dude outside safeway in bremerton, held up his hand like that and let us pet his dog. Then he said his dog's name was "stupid"

Yeah, but the look on your faces was classic at the time
