New Web Tools - SLA 2005

In New Web Tools at the SLA Conference 2005, Genie Tyburski and Gary Price presented their picks for software utilities and Web-based resources for doing research.

Genie Tyburski's Web Tools 2005 reviewed the researcher tools Onfolio.com and NetSnippets, had tools for searching RSS feeds, and looked at sources of information about criminal activity. Also showed how hacking at Google can turn up sensitive information.

Gary Price's Cool Tools had online resources for finding documents (Docuticker.com from ResourceShelf), e-book full text, MelissaData.com for lookups in the United States and the Argali phonebooks. Also showcased Yahoo! Next. Lots more.
