Internet Information Resources Model: ... The first email program was developed in the 1970s using a network of computers, thus giving university researchers ideas for developing an innovative means of information storage, retrieval and exchange. Their ideas came together in 1984 in the form of a computer network spread throughout the world's academic research centers. It wasn't until the 1990s, however, that serious thoughts began to enter peoples' minds about moving this paradigm of manipulating information resources in a large, compatible network sharing environment beyond academic research and military applications. At that point the Internet Information Resources Model was clearly established. Expression such as The Information Age and Information Superhighway confirmed the model. Note: Much of the background for the Internet Information Resources Model can be found in book Weaving the Web by Tim Berners-Lee. AOL was at one time listed among the search engine links above. We were not correct in inferring that a provider of online and interactive computer services was a search engine. AOL Search is enhanced by Google. The Network is enhanced by Google as an online information service. The search engine provided by Cuil, Inc of Menlo Park, CA was recommended to The Network by a Merrill Lynch financial consultant who stated that it is ... the world’s biggest search engine ... better than Google. We (who we are) tested it with the keyword combination, economic development network, as a phrase by setting the text inside quotation marks (advanced search) but it didn't seem to make a difference. Our conclusion is that Cuil doesn't have advanced features that users can control to search the Web. Since we responded to a financial consultant by adding Cuil to the .network list of search engines, you may be interested in knowing its investors: www.cuil.com/info/investors.

Google and thousands of other websites are using its data throughout the web. The quote is from ActiveMedia's online marketing and search engine optimization glossary. The search engine at the top of this page for querying the Web is provided by Google. The expression open economic development directory project is defined in the .network glossary. It is an undertaking to provide an economic development directory online that allows resource and service providers engaged in the process to obtain listings of their contact data for free and that also allows its users free-access. CLICK HERE for more information from the glossary. Lycos.com provides the Ask search engine (link accesses advanced search). Although no longer listed among .network user recommended search engines, Lycos does have resources. The Find Me Here main directory page provides access to various search tools.
