This system allowed to connect the search keywords to online documents: this tag report the presence in specific contents.
The search engine elaborated this results in lists.
The second generation (Google was born)
Google, first of his name, king of the search engines, emperor of data, saviour of humanity that navigate online.THE search engine conquered the throne for his capacity of analyze Web specific data (link first and so user navigation, user experience, citation, authority of sites).
