The final result is a fully customized search facility for a course that, like its bibliographic analog, points students in the right directions. If agents are enabled for one of these sessions, one can ask the agent to repeat a particularly successful search automatically, say, every week. When the agent completes its work, it sends an e-mail message to the requester with a list of links to pages that fit the search criteria and are new. That is, they weren't there the last time the site was crawled. Of course this is just too good for exclusive use by students.
Faculty use it as well to keep tabs on their areas of research interest.
Fifteen faculty signed-up for one or the other of the two Webliography workshops offered electing to give it a try. It's an interesting article and interesting concept. I think it's worth publishing with some revisions. Biggest concern is that the article needs more information that readers can use to replicate the same kind of service at their own institutions. For example, I'd like to know more about the robot.
