About the Guide!
The Guide first opened on April 12, 1996.
New users and experienced gurus agree: the Guide is the only search
site you need to bookmark. We provide access to twenty of the web's
best indexes, and unlike other "meta" sites which require all options
to be left on the default settings, the Guide is designed so that a
complete set of options is available to custom tailor each search.
Don't need all the options? Don't worry! They're already optimized to
provide you with the best results.

Next, fill out the form by entering in the keyword(s) you want to
search for in the dialogue box and change the options to suit your
needs. If you are unsure what some of the options do, simply leave them
in their default positions. Click on the "Reset" button if you want to
clear the dialogue box and return all options to their defaults.
The last step is to press the "Submit" button or ENTER. This will send
your query off to the selected index. You should receive an answer back
quickly, but please be patient as some indexes are bogged down. If you
receive an error message please check our troubleshooting
document for possible causes and work arounds.
The Amazing Internet Guide is simple to use. The first step is
to select an index from the list on the bar to the left. You can simply
start at the top of the list and work your way down, or you may want to
select your favorite.
