Title

Could a search agent solve the information overload problem?

Source

IT link. 10(1998) no.7, S.3-5

Year

1998

Abstract

Discusses problems of information overload and of devising a means to retrieve items of interest at a later date. Describes software agents and considers whether they are capable of development to the point where they could search the WWW and retrieve items rank ordered by personal interests. Suggests that although a good deal of research is being done with this end in view, there appears to be little as yet in the way of usable products, and nothing that meets this author's specific needs
