I would love to find a tool that would go out on the web and find 
information on all kinds of research topics so I don't have to search on 
my own.  Specifically I want to find research useful for my novels, 
namely facts about aspects of daily Anglo Saxon life, like crops, the 
money, jurisprudence, you name it.

Now I thought that was what DataFerret was but it seems to be US Census 
info.

Is anyone aware of anything like what I am talking about?  For instance 
I might set the tool to look for material about crops grown in souther 
England in the tenth century.  It would then go looking all over the web 
and send me a list of sites it foound.

Thanks for any advice you can offer.
