Webinar on NBII's Raptor Search Engine Now Online

NBII's Raptor is not your ordinary Web search engine! A brief webinar that gives background on this specialized search engine is now available through the Help link above the Raptor search box found on every NBII Web page , or by going directly to the Raptor Webinar page.  From the webinar, the viewer-listener can learn the reasons that the NBII implemented Raptor, and how the NBII chooses information and Web sites to add to sources searched by Raptor (users are invited to make suggestions for more additions).  The use of Raptor's unique features are also explained, including using the clustering function to enable exploration, discovery, and learning not possible with other search engines.  An e-mail address to use for sending suggestions and feedback is given at the end of the webinar.
