AllTheWeb. (Internet Search Engine: Update).(new features)(Brief Article)

Online, September, 2002 by Notess, Greg R.

AllTheWeb claims it has increased the size of its database to over 2 billion fully indexed Web pages. That number puts it just ahead of Google's claimed number, increasing the likelihood that AllTheWeb will find pages Google and other search engines miss. Other additions include a new PDF documents limit on the advanced search page and, for the CSS-literate user, AllTheWeb Alchemist [www.alltheweb.com/alchemist/], which lets users create their own "skin" for AllTheWeb. This only affects the look and feel of the site. It does not change the search functionality or any of the output.
