    Interesting to think beyond what basic searching google does. I think sometimes we "Cripple" our searches by just checking google. Of course I always remind students that "web" is not peer reviewed journal, there is no quality control.

    This is VERY interesting- I had no idea there were sites that indexed private networks. I am also convinced that the "crawler" is outdated.

    I was using google scholar to search for scholarly papers. I will check these out to see if I can do my literature search using some of them.

    Google scholar has probably more advantages in that you can see who the preeminent author (most cited but other pubs) is. Its great for that. Interesting discussion on pros and cons of indexing such as google scholar. I guess it misses a bit.... even so I find it a very useful tool. http://blogs.ubc.ca/dean/2007/11/top-five-5-problems-with-google-scholar-three-years-later/ (ive spoken to ref librarians that are not crazy about it either). I think like all the search tools, they are good but not good enough to be "the" exclusive tool.
