	Karnak Search Services Offers Free Version

Karnak, (http://www.karnak.com), an Internet-based application that helps users conduct research on the Web, today launched a free version of its automated search service. The new, free version allows everyone access to Internet-based information without the clutter and irrelevancy typical of current search engines. Karnak makes searches more relevant and less time consuming, solving the "information overload" brought on by the mass of content now published on the Web.

Users receive only that information most relevant to them. Karnak users can have findings delivered by email, and stored online for later, or shared access

Recent reports state that current search tools cover only a small percentage of the Web, only as much as 16% for any one search engine, according to a study by NEC Research Institute. Still, with thousands, or hundreds of thousands of pages returned on standard queries, sorting through the information for relevant sites can be a Herculean task. Karnak, using advanced query-building logic, alleviates the need for spending time sorting and filtering results, while also allowing for the information returned to be catalogued and stored for later use.

"With the explosion of information housed on the Web, it is critical to research-dependent businesses and professions that they spend as little time as possible and access only that which is relevant to their business or client," says Aly Salam, general manager, VedaSource LLC. "Karnak allows these companies to build knowledge bases, what we like to call 'information equity,' containing only critical information, in less time than current search tools allow."

Stored information becomes a resource for continual study and knowledge building, with access to this "knowledge library" available at any time and from any location. Search results accumulate over time, building a storehouse of relevant knowledge on each particular topic.

Launched in 1998 by VedaSource LLC, Karnak is an Internet-based research service. Karnak allows access to more information than any other single search service, and has the added benefit of continuing to work while the user is off-line. Karnak provides access to all public records normally available via the Internet, and will soon allow access to proprietary Internet databases not available to general search engines.
