Search
Direct
Search is a very huge compilation of direct links to the search interfaces
of resources that are not easily searchable from general search engines
such as Alta Vista, Yahoo etc. While general search tools are essential
for information retrieval, many users do not realize that large amounts
of information are not searchable via these engines. The first quarter
of the page is an unordered list, and not of much use, after that everything
is alpabeticaly organized by subject

Wap
Search Engines
WAP,
or Wireless Application Protocol, allows you to create and view web pages
on wireless devices like cell phones or within handheld computers like
Palm Pilot. Why WAP search engines? Using an ordinary search engine through
a wireless device may not be possible or inconvenient. WAP search engines
should be designed for low-bandwidth and small screen viewing. More importantly,
ordinary search engines are going to direct you to normal web pages, which
aren't designed for handheld devices. A WAP search engine will direct you
to WAP pages
