Search engines and social capital
In communities such as the WELL yahoo groups, usernets, mailinglists, forums, estrip you get to know the people who are producing the answers and can decide if you trust that person as a source of information based on their history and your personal interactions with them. With search engines none of that exists. There is no need to be accurate, only a need to show up at the top of the return list, which does not equate validity, just a repetition of keywords and other people (possibly yourself) linking to you.
Furthermore, the results of most searches on the Internet only give you information that already exists while online communities allow the user to pose questions that possibly have not been answered yet and get results from other people with expertise in that subject matter.
This is not to say that search engines are not the one of the best ways in which to find information, just as an encylopedia is a great way to find out about something.

e:poetry was great
All the words in the poems now link back to the site search engine. One of the arguments against hypertext in epoetry was that it didn't really offer the reader a deeper look into the text. In this case I have overcome that by having the actual words link to searches of the journals, so that you can follow each words back to its orginal context, as well as, explore more about the author of that phrase. Not only that but, because its local you could meet the author, or at least contact them through email or IM. What would you say, "I liked the poem you wrote." They wouldn't have any idea. It really brings more meaning to the phrase, "You're a poet and you didn't know it."
I am coining this reality e-poetry in case I already havent. Jesse is in the class too which is great. My code can't write poems about him because he deleted himself everytime he wrote. He is my idol anyways - especially s ince I learned that he has his breakfast delivered!
