As Google has worked to overtake the internet, its search algorithm has not just gotten worse.  It has been designed to prioritize advertisers and popular pages often times excluding pages and content that better matches your search terms 

As a writer in need of information for my stories, I find this unacceptable.  As a proponent of availability of information so the populace can actually educate itself, it is unforgivable.

Below is a concise list of useful research sites compiled by Edward Clark over on Facebook. I was familiar with some, but not all of these.

⁂

Google is so powerful that it “hides” other search systems from us. We just don’t know the existence of most of them. Meanwhile, there are still a huge number of excellent searchers in the world who specialize in books, science, other smart information. Keep a list of sites you never heard of.

www.refseek.com - Academic Resource Search. More than a billion sources: encyclopedia, monographies, magazines.

www.worldcat.org - a search for the contents of 20 thousand worldwide libraries. Find out where lies the nearest rare book you need.

https://link.springer.com - access to more than 10 million scientific documents: books, articles, research protocols.

www.bioline.org.br is a library of scientific bioscience journals published in developing countries.

http://repec.org - volunteers from 102 countries have collected almost 4 million publications on economics and related science.

www.science.gov is an American state search engine on 2200+ scientific sites. More than 200 million articles are indexed.

www.pdfdrive.com is the largest website for free download of books in PDF format. Claiming over 225 million names.

So I realized that I don’t actually know of a calendar of what I call “tumblr holidays,” which are days that are only really important to fandom/tumblr memes and you always make sure to reblog that one post (or many posts!) that celebrates it. 

Anyway, in honour of today being October 3rd, I figured I should attempt to make a tumblr holidays masterpost.

Defense attorney Miles Edgeworth and his chief Manfred Von Karma are here to face off against prosecutor Phoenix Wright and his mentor Lady Mia Fey! Miles may not have as much experience in court as others but he's determined to save the phoenix trapped in Lady Fey's gilded cage!

(I had this idea a few days ago where what if Edgeworth and Wright had their stories switched, even their personalities cause I've seen many versions of defense lawyer Edgeworth still being quite serious and goofy prosecutor Wright, but also their mentors also swapped roles too! (Honestly I just wanted to draw a young and good version of Manfred Von Karma and suddenly everyone is getting role/personality swaps!) I might (already am) be doing swapped roles for Franziska and Maya as well so I will have fun figuring out how they will turn out! (I'll go more in detail about the two girls and their roles when I have them finished!)

Also yes Mia killed Phoenix's Mother who was a defense attorney and then took him under her wing. Growing up, I like to imagine he is treated like a phoenix in a gilded cage where Mia flaunts her perfect pupil in public letting him out to prosecute and get a guilty verdict every time but when he is back in the manor he mainly hides away in his room to study and Mia barely interacts with him only telling him when to eat or what case he is to take next. Even when he grows up and gets a place of his own his night terrors keep him from fully getting rested and unannounced check ins from Mia always keeps him on his toes.)
