Info Seek

 Use multiple words when performing your search. Infoseek's search technology will return more refined results from several words than from a single word.

For example, typing best pizza in San Francisco will yield more relevant results than typing only pizza or restaurant. (Keep in mind, relevant results are returned even if they don't contain all query terms.)

 Capitalize proper nouns. Lowercase words will match any case. For example, typing next will return documents containing the words next, Next, and NeXT. However, typing NeXT will only search for pages about NeXT. Capitalized names that are adjacent to each other will be treated as a single name.

For example, typing Rock Hudson will return pages with the actor's name in them. However, rock hudson will return pages about the actor, as well as pages about rocks, the Hudson River, and the Hudson Brothers.

 Separate proper nouns with a comma to indicate different names, and ensure the best results.

For example if no comma is included, the phase will be treated as White House Bill Clinton, rather than White House and/or Bill Clinton
