Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: This survey has shown that, although the internet is full of information, it is difficult to find the information required fast. Before starting an internet survey, it is essential to be conscious of the intention of the search and the expected results and to translate this into one or more keywords. The intention of the keyword searches knowledge management and intellectual capital was to find out how the topic is treated on different pages. The categorization by content has shown that a main part of the links can be assigned in the advertisement categories. This is the case for both, the hits of MetaCrawler and those of Umap. A further community of the results of the two search instruments is that the catego-ries knowledge base and best practices only take a small part whereas the categories content discussion and collection of resources are relatively well-attended. Great importance has been attached to the categorie content discussion in the index and chapter 6 is fully dedicated to interesting links concerning the content.

The test of the hypothesises, that are based on a comparison of the results and processes of the categorizations, has shown that the categorization by [...]
