Biznar for Business Research
Biznar is a business research engine from Deep Web Technologies. Biznar chooses the sources and deeply indexes them. Results are clustered into topics, date range, and variety of facets. It has a starring system for rating quality. You can also set up an alert on the search.
There are some controls. Advanced search allows limiting to Blogs, Business Research, News, or Government info in total or to specific sources. Government info is only EDGAR-SEC in the US and patent databases. In Business Research has Gartner, Forrester, CIO and many more.
Can also sort by date, title, author, or ranking. There is a button to show status of results from a source - number of hits returned, timeout.
This is an impressive business research engine in sources used and the topical treatment. Only complaint is the slow speed.
