Abstract

Let us sit upon the ground and tell sad stories of the death of ... search engines. That's the gist of this postmortem on the search engines of yore, many quite popular at the time, their names still familiar to our ear. The author, ending on a positive note, points to a list of survivors but still you wonder what will happen if Google ever tanks or goes the "pay-for-positioning" route. Stranger things have happened
