Intranet Journal, August 25, 2005 - ASP.NET Sample Code: Database Multi-Sort

2. SIGHTINGS AROUND THE WEB: Answers.com
Looking for some answers? This Web site covers several topics, including food, games, business, and science. There is a special reference section and even one covering the current day. There are also some neat downloads, for free.
The site states, "The right tool for the right query. Search engines are
terrific when you've got a complex request; if you are trying to recall,
say, the name of a Victorian Scottish woolen bonnet, there's probably a
page out there that you can dig up. But if you need to know what pie in the
sky means, when Benjamin Franklin was born, or whether Aeschylating is a
cromulent word, a search engine isn't your best bet. You need a free one
stop reference tool."
