Like many Internet innovations, Web search engines were hatched at universities in the early 1990s. A few computer scientists figured out that if there wasn't a way to index the information that had begun pouring onto the Web, things were bound to get out of control fast. Taking a cue from the structure of Archie and Gopher servers, which track and index software and text on the Internet for FTP and Gopher clients, these programmers wrote software that crawls all over the Web unattended (and most often in the wee hours of the morning), collecting data and then automatically applying algorithms to sort that data into keyword-searchable indexes.
