It is not hard to find information on the Internet. But finding relevant
information is a little trickier. So surfers will be pleased to hear that Mother
knows best—the “mother of all search engines”, that is. The nifty page at

at the same time, formatting the query into the correct syntax for each site.
The list of responses is usually more tightly focused and shorter than you would
get from just one search engine.
