Hi All, This item from another list is kind of on the edge between programming and general applications use. Nevertheless I figured someone on this list might have some suggestions for accessible spider or web crawl / search tools. Here is the original post but I bet many people on this list would be interested in the answers. THANKS in advance Dorene Cornwell Seattle WA -----Original Message----- From: Nan Hawthorne<hawthorne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: VICUG-L@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Mon, Jan 17, 2011 12:22 pm Subject: [VICUG-L] automated data collection tools I would love to find a tool that would go out on the web and find information on all kinds of research topics so I don't have to search on my own. Specifically I want to find research useful for my novels, namely facts about aspects of daily Anglo Saxon life, like crops, the money, jurisprudence, you name it. Now I thought that was what DataFerret was but it seems to be US Census info. Is anyone aware of anything like what I am talking about? For instance I might set the tool to look for material about crops grown in souther England in the tenth century. It would then go looking all over the web and send me a list of sites it foound. Thanks for any advice you can offer.
