WebFeat

WebFeat is a really great time-saving tool, which allows one to search across many different databases using one search. It also increases the validity of one's search, since it is only searching a set of specific databases.

I searched for my home town of Osceola, Wisconsin (a really, really small town!) and found only a few relevant articles. The most interesting was titled, "The Word Is Out! Osceola Student Wins Wisconsin State Championship in Nation's Premier Vocabulary Competition".PR Newswire 2007-03-20 NA (377 words). Unfortunately, I do not know the girl who won this competition, but it's good to know that someone in Osceola has great vocabulary!!
