Web scrubbing
Thursday September 17, 2009 by Miles Pongrass
My company (a not-for-profit) is trying to develop a series of new educational/training products for the engineering/manufacturing space. The trouble is we have a limited known universe (our database is small and over-researched already) relative to the whole universe (all manufacturing professionals including engineers). I need a way to scrub the web monitoring the level of chatter/blog/tweets and searches for the topics that my target audience is searching for.
Besides Google and its suite of products, does anyone know of some good sites/services that offer robust web scrubbing services?
Thanks
Miles

Thanks Dan, but Quirks is the first place I looked. Just wanted to see if there was anything else out there.
Thanks again.
