NYT: The Online Search Party: A Way to Share the Load Excerpt from New York Times Article: The Online Search Party: A Way to Share the Load https://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/23/business/23novelties.html OPPORTUNITIES for social networking abound on the Internet, but not when it comes to one standard job: using a browser and search engine to comb the Web for information. That task is still typically done solo, because browser displays and search procedures have traditionally been designed for a single user.
