Hey there loyal CTI Supporters -
Whether your favourite search engine is Google or one of the many others,
were you aware the order in which you type in your query can, in many
cases, change the results dramatically!

Next time you don't find suitable results, try entering your keywords in a
different order.

Good luck with your research,
Jim

I'm finding that Google is becoming worse than useless: they are so busy using their algorithms to give you what they want to. You used to be able to find the most obscure things, but not anymore.
Any suggestions for new and better search engines would be gratefully received.
