Starting this session with retrieving information more effectively.
Exercise so far is encouraging people to use the site:URL version of google search to do deeper into a site and so limit the search results.
Using the * symbol in a missing phrase for example.
Much of today’s session will not be new to UK followers eg. Domain registry, reverse IP address etc. hence lack of updates. (Most could be covered by looking at Google help pages).
However, interesting use of Wayback machine demonstrated to trace former employee of an organisation. For example, someone who was once responsible for an organisation and could therefore be a good source for extra information.
Finding experts
– Use Wikipedia to look for external links and therefore secondary sources
– limit search results to University pages
– with scientists, use Latin names
– use Google scholar
