`SUSI Search Engine
`SUSI is undoubtedly the best spider in the Web. SUSI stands for
`”Simple Unified Search Interface,” and that's exactly what
`;"[
`
`
`it is. Using fill-in-the-blank boxes, buttons and pull-down
`menus, SUSI lets you search about 40 of the Web's best
`information indexes. Chances are, if you can't find it here,
`you won't find it anywhere.

`
`The WebCrawler serves three functions: (1) it builds

`Net-wide agent, searching for documents of particular
`interest to the user, and (3) it's a testbed for experimenting
`with Web search strategies.

`Wiretap Online Library
`The Wiretap Online Library is an impressive collection of electronic

`ments, humor, FAQ collections. Since the Online Library only exists as
`a Gopher site, you don't have the benefits of hypertext browsing and
`multimedia, but when you see what's available here, you'll probably be
`too overwhelmed to care.

`
`Don't forget, you can use the Windows Notepad to cut and paste
`URLs you find while in Mosaic or while using other Internet
`services. That way, by saving them electronically and not writing
`them down, you remove the risk of copying them incorrectly.
`
`0 Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Often different Web
`search engines use different methods for organizing their
`indexes. Some are generated automatically, so they can include
`just about every Web page in existence. This is great, but you
`may spend a ridiculous amount of time sorting through a lot of
`useless information. On the other hand, some Web searching
`indexes are very specialized and won't ever have anything
`about the subject you're searching for. Diversify! Try to use a
`combination of techniques.
`
`0 Don't be lazy and just rely on webbed information. Sometimes
`it helps to use other Net resources. There's a lot of information
`out there on Gopher, WAIS, Archie and other searchable sys-
`tems. If you're stuck in your Web searches, break out HGopher
`and start looking elsewhere.
`
`0 Don't be afraid to ask. Sometimes, other people are the best
`Internet search engines. Many people have been places you
`haven't; someone may have already surfed that elusive corner
`of the Net that has what you're looking for.
`
`0 USENET is also a great resource. Read newsgroups like
`comp.infosystems.www and other groups that serve people
`with similar interests. A quick question on a newsgroup can
`reach thousands of people in minutes. Sometimes, you'll receive
`an answer within hours.

`
`I Don't forget the phone book (and other more conventional
`methods). Often, the information you're looking for doesn't
`require a global data search as much as it does a call to your
`local library, TV station or government agency. The resources of
`the Net and the Web shouldn't end up being a crutch.
`
`0 Keep an open mind. Just because a source at first might not
`seem like it's going to be useful, learn to trust your instincts and
`break off the beaten path every once in a whi1e—you might be
`surprised.

`
`Cool Sites to Visit
`st
`Now that we've seen what the Web has to offer in the way of resource
`centers and online libraries, it's time to expand our horizons and look
`at some of the more culturally oriented offerings. From art and pop
`culture to games and virtual reality, the sites in this section give you a
`bird's eye View of some of the Web's cooler watering holes.
`
`Art & Literature
`One of the most exciting areas of the World Wide Web and hypermedia
`browsers like Mosaic is the possibilities they offer for making, exchang-
`ing and viewing art and literature over the Internet. A whole new type
`of art, called telematic art, has emerged in cyberspace. In telematic art,
`the Net and the Web themselves, and the forms of interactive commu-
`nication they allow, become part of the art. You can learn more about
`telematic art, online art happenings, interactive literature and other

`Commerce
`
`All eyes in cyberspace are turned toward the emerging
`world of Net-based commerce. Some people are excited by
`the prospect of doing business over the Internet, others
`loathe the idea, thinking it will turn it into a virtual strip
`mall. The bottom line is that commerce in this realm is
`inevitable and platforms like Mosaic are ideally suited for
`the online marketplace. The sites in this section represent
`some of the first storefronts to hang out their ”Open For
`Business” signs.

`Cyberculture
`Cyberculture is what you get when you cross digital technologies,
`avant-pop culture and fringe science. Inspired by the
`cyberpunk science fiction of writers like William Gibson
`and Bruce Sterling, cyberculture is concerned with the
`near future and how the increasing and widespread
`availability of high technology will affect our lives. It's a
`do-it-yourself mentality applied to futurism.

`Wired is one of the most exciting new magazines to appear in years. It
`combines a progressive design with hard—hitting
`journalism from the cutting edge of digital culture and
`technology. Since its beginning, Wired has been interested
`in maintaining a vital presence in cyberspace. Although
`that involvement has so far been limited to the tools that
`are already available (with forums on AOL, the WELL and
`USENET), Wired is currently working on pushing the

`Fun & Games
`
`Whether it's sports, board or role—playing games, or comedy that

`machine and, would you believe, an Internet hot tub?

`Snapshots From the UMBC Computer Department
`Probably in any other context, pictures like this would
`bore you to death. However, having the ability to snoop in
`on someone's office hundreds or even thousands of miles
`
`away does have its appeal. Here are up-to-the-minute
`snapshots of what's going on in the computer department
`at the University of Maryland, Baltimore. The pictures are
`relatively small and in GIF format, so even if you have a
`low-powered PC and a SLIP connection, you can still
`snoop. Take a peek.

`Music, Film & Television
`Music and moving pictures have so far not made it big in cyberspace.
`Powerful direct-connected machines do OK with audio and video, but
`for SLIP / PPP connections, at today's modem speeds, music and film
`can only be hinted at. The sites in this section are either pathbreaking
`attempts at showing what the Web can do in this area, or they're
`repositories of information on more traditional forms of music, film
`and television.

`have a look around. Remember a famous line but can't put your finger
`on who said it and in what film? Search by the quotation. A film buff’s
`dream come true.

`Telecommunications Policy & Information law
`Telecommunications and information law are exciting legal arenas
`these days. There are major commercial forces amassing on the edges
`of cyberspace (the cable/ interactive TV industries, the phone compa-
`nies, the multimedia vendors) and border skirmishes are already
`breaking out. While on another front, all the old rules about intellectual
`property, information theft and copyrights are being called into ques-
`tion in our digital age. If you want to watch the fur fly, or if you want
`to get involved in trying to steer the course of these emerging laws and
`policy, the sites in this section are key points of access.

`culture and legal issues are also stored here, as is the EFF’s Guide to the
