From owner-announce@net.bio.net Mon Nov 23 22:00:00 1998 Path: biosci!biosci!not-for-mail From: "Dipl. Biol. Nils Koesters" Newsgroups: bionet.announce Subject: www.biocrawler.com - www.biologie.de New Searchengine Database Date: 24 Nov 1998 10:59:54 -0800 Organization: University of Stirling Lines: 31 Sender: daemon@net.bio.net Approved: kristoff@net.bio.net Distribution: world Message-ID: <73bnvu$j3v@lorne.stir.ac.uk> NNTP-Posting-Host: net.bio.net Dear Subscribers, Biologie.de (Biocrawler.com) has now opened their new database. Although still under construction, we have already collected over 7000 biological relevant links in many sections of biology. We are still collecting and we will add more and more categories. Unless other searchengines, which simply collect links, we rate them by counting the numbers of links to this site to get an estimate of importance of this site. Sites with more links to them are rated more important. Additionally we have a search / filter option which allows search and filtered browsing. Only pages containing the searchquery will be displayed, also in lower categories. Biologie.de and its associate Chemie.de should be with this step the biggest subjectspecific information providers in germany and we are probably one of the biggest link collection provided by professional biologists and chemists the world. In the future we will also feature a specified book and journal section in which the, in our opinion, most relevant scientific books and journals will be presented. With regards Dipl. Biol. Nils Koesters webmaster@biologie.de .
