Tom Johnson on 29 Aug 11Zanran helps you to find 'semi-structured' data on the web. This is the numerical data that people have presented as graphs and tables and charts. For example, the data could be a graph in a PDF report, or a table in an Excel spreadsheet, or a barchart shown as an image in an HTML page. This huge amount of information can be difficult to find using conventional search engines, which are focused primarily on finding text rather than graphs, tables and bar charts. Put more simply: Zanran is Google for data. Language. English only please... for now. Phrase search. You can use double quotes to make phrases (e.g. "mobile phones"). Booleans. You can use a plus '+' to make a word mandatory, or a minus '-' to exclude it (e.g. +gas -oil production) Vocabulary. We have only limited synonyms - please try different words in your query. And we don't spell-check ... yet.
