Aus Lycos (http://www.lycos.com/press/frontiers3.html) ueber Lycos:

> The Lycos technology was developed at Carnegie Mellon University, and
> was recently transferred to Lycos Inc., a newly-created subsidiary of
> CMG Information Services Inc. Lycos is a software system which
> contains a robot that searches the World Wide Web and catalogs the
> documents it finds. It also includes an information search engine that
> helps users access information quickly and easily when they type in
> key words or topics. The Lycos exploration robot locates new and
> changed documents and builds abstracts, which consist of title,
> headings, subheadings, 100 most significant words and the first 20
> lines of the document. The catalog is continually updated by the Lycos
> exploration agent. Frontier will receive regular updates from Lycos
> Inc., allowing it to produce monthly issues of SuperHighway Access
> CyberSearch.
