Many people believe that searching the Web is as easy as typing a few terms into a box and clicking the search button. Like magic, in a matter of seconds, links to precise, accurate, and current answers will appear. Unfortunately, this is not the case. The term “search” is very broad and means different things to different people. For some people it means using an engine like AllTheWeb or Teoma. For others it includes the use of a Web directory focused on a specific topic. For some, search means utilizing not only Web engines but also specialized
databases that may contain geographic data, full-text articles, or government information.

Just about everyone's had a day when they've wished it were possible
to send an alternate self to take care of unpleasant or tedious errands
while the real self takes it easy. In Kiln People, David Brin's
sci-fi-meets-noir novel, this wish has come true. In Brin's imagined
future, folks are able to make inexpensive, disposable clay copies of
themselves. These golems or "dittos" live for a single day to serve
their creator, who can then choose whether or not to "inload" the
memories of the ditto's brief life. But private investigator Albert
Morris gets more than he, or his "ditective" copies, bargain for when
he signs on to help solve the mysterious disappearance of Universal
Kilns' co-founder Yasil Maharal--the father of dittotech. Brin
successfully interweaves plot lines as numerous as our hero's
ditectives and doggedly sticks to the rules of his created dittotech
while Morris's "realflesh" and clay manifestations slowly unravel the
dangerous secret behind Maharal's disappearance. As Brin juggles his
multiple protagonists and antagonists, he urges the reader to question
notions of memory, individualism, and technology, and to answer the
schizoid question "which 'you' is 'you?'" Brin's enjoyment is evident
as he plays with his terracotta creations' existential angst and
simultaneously deconstructs the familiar streetwise detective
meme--complete with a multilayered ending. Overall, Kiln People is a fun read, with a good balance of hard science fiction and pop sensibility.
