The web is a book with many secret pages written in invisible inks, a mountain full of caves where ancient scrolls lie hidden in shadows, a city where nobody knows everybody but everybody knows somebody. Recent successful quests were for Igor Stravinsky, Lodewijk Elsevier, Nezahualcoyotl, Pel, Thomas Mann, abba, droite, jeudy, poezie, zzz, week and Laurence of Canterbury. Various criteria can optionally be selected to finetune a search and speed up the arrival at the desired discovery. What might our visitors be looking for today?
