Over the last year, mergers and acquisitions have resulted in the disappearance of some of the more well known search tools. In their place, though, totally new services have sprung up. Many of these offer unique advanced search features and are contenders for Google's number one position in search. Newer technologies such as RSS, blogs, wikis and desktop search are also altering how we look for and manage information. This presentation will identify the best of the new search tools, essential techniques and features in search today, and how they can be used to improve relevance and reduce information overload.
