What is All the Web, All the Time ?
All the Web, All the Time is the trademark for FAST's Web search engine, http://alltheweb.com. According to the latest NEC article in Nature, the World Wide Web by mid 1999 contains about 800 million documents, but in our experience with the FAST Web Crawler, over 50% of these are duplicates. In May 1999, FAST announced with Dell a catalogue size of 80 million documents. With the current release, over 300 million documents are now searchable, and we will continue to grow with the Web to 1 billion documents and beyond. Thus, with FAST Web Search you will be able to search All the Web, All the TimeTM.
