Lycos Retriever is a unique new service from Lycos. Retriever is an information fusion engine, bringing together information from across the Web into a concise, easy-to-read summary.
Retriever Topic pages include meaty extracts from high-quality Web pages which give you basic information and let you know where to go for more. Each Topic page focuses not on a word, but an idea. It also gives you helpful links to pages that tell you more about specific aspects of the basic idea.
Retriever evaluates both the quality and the freshness of the information it's reporting. What it returns to the user is a briefing book, with perspectives from all over the Web, not a dry encyclopedia article or one person's opinion on a subject.
