Web Wombat
-
Another home-grown Australian search engine with very impressive capabilities,
though listings are manipulated (eg: users can buy a position in the listing
so that their site is returned on the first page of any query that covers
their chosen field). The Web Wombat site will be redesigned in 1997.
