The Scour Media Agent (SMA) is a program that is used in conjunction with
|
|
the Scour search service (http://www.scour.net/). This is a new kind of
|
|
search service that specializes in searching for multimedia filetypes
|
|
(video, animation, audio, etc.). They search 6 different protocols and have
|
|
the most comprehensive webcrawlers of any search engine presently in
|
|
existence. The database contains everything from links to streaming video
|
|
lectures on Microbiology (coming soon) to the latest music video from the
|
|
Spice Girls.
|
|
|
|
They specialize even further by separating media files into their respective
|
|
types (.avi, .mpg, .mov, .viv, .ram, .mp3, etc.) So, going beyond just
|
|
being able to search for video files, you can specify all the way down to
|
|
the file type.
|
|
|
|
This free service started out as a dorm room project by a couple of Computer
|
|
Science students at UCLA.
