Tried several of the search engines to find very specific information related to my job in relation to preparing for workshops on emergent literacy. Lots of stuff that related to one key word, but not the essence of the total search. Did add topix.com to my blogline as there were at least several recent relevant hits, including two articles from today, one from Buffalo, New York paper and one from a Canadian study on teaching boys to read (says females are better tutors--interesting). I'm sure that as I have time to try limiting or learning how to limit searches, I will get more specific hits. It was a little disconcerting to come up unexpectedly with a pornography site with a hit for Westminster. I bet someone doesn't know what their daughter at college is putting online.
I had already signed up for Merlin when it first went live, but now will be much more likely to view it and keep up to date with it added to my blogline!
