Search Engines have been designed by companies such as Yahoo or Digital
Equipment Corporation's Alta Vista to help you find resources on the World

Search engines have subcategories (Arts, Education) to make your search
quicker and more specific. Remember there are hundreds of computer databases
and your search engines are traveling throughout the entire NETwork to assist
you in finding the appropriate addresses and information.
