Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger: Visual QuickStart Guide

The Internet Channel

You can use Sherlock to search the Internet for Web sites with information about topics that interest you. Unlike most other Internet search engines, Sherlock can search multiple directories (or search sites) at once. Best of all, you don’t need to know special search syntax. Just enter a search word or phrase in plain English, select the search sites you want to use, and put Sherlock to work. It displays matches in order of relevance, so the most likely matches appear first.

✓ Tip

• Sherlock utilizes the search sites that are listed at the bottom of the Internet window (Figure 7). These sites may change.
