Google as a research tool

Keywords: Information retrieval, Chemistry

Google is the second-most used search engine for chemistry research by professional chemists, after ChemWeb (see FOSN for 2/25/02, 4/22/02). Google's sorting algorithm and index size make it useful for serious scientific research even in direct competition with searchable databases dedicated to scientific content.

I don't feel guilty now for doing the same for many ILDS related searches! (Ed.)
