Politics aside, I've always enjoyed watching the occasional French president's speech on television. Where U.S. presidents act, well, presidential, and the Queen will be regal, a French head of state is much more expansive. And nowadays, we can also compare another style: on-line presence ...

"There are two main features of The Search & Information Access Research that keep me coming back to it as a reference. There are, of course, the reviews of the different tools, which are very helpful when I quickly need to learn about a new search engine.
