DeepDyve for Cleantech

Search engine dives into cleantech by Sara Stroud, Sustainable Industries (Nov 17)

More news about DeepDyve (formerly Infovell) -- "the startup says it is expanding its focus from life sciences and patents to cleantech and energy, and will begin indexing material on such topics in late 2008."

"Targeting information-savvy users, DeepDyve claims to dig into unstructured online material, including technical and scholarly publications, databases and proprietary information. The company has also partnered with publishers—mostly of academic journals— to index materials. Users will still have to purchase articles from the publishers, Park says; but he notes that DeepDyve’s query system offers a greater assurance that an article would contain the sought after information."
