Search Tips


We are getting tons of phone calls from Recruiters who want to build their own Spiders. This week we're pointing out the three best books on the subject. The links take you to Amazon.com where you can order them.


Bots : The Origin of a New Species
Andrew Leonard

"Is cyberspace the new primordial ooze in which out-of-control bots are mutating, multiplying, and engaging in a near-Darwinian struggle to survive? Where is this escalation heading? This is the first book written on the subject of bots. It is an in-depth investigation into a new reality of sky-rocketing complexity, dangerous malfunction, and masterful malice, drawing a powerful parallel between the biological and the digital evolution of species." – Amazon.com

Hardcover, 224 pages
Published by Hardwired
Publication date: July 1,1999


Bots and Other Internet Beasties
Joseph Williams

"Among the recent of swarm of "how-to-build-your-own internet-software-agent" books. Not heavy on the programming end of things, but a good and comprehensive overview of the current state of the art (ca. early 1996). The big advantage of this volume is that it was collaboratively written by 20 agent researchers representing many implementations and ideological biases. Contains brief but good overviews of the potential use of Java, Tcl/Tk and Telescript in the creation of Internet agents, as well as a CD-ROM for NT, Windows, and Win95 containing Java and Tcl/Tk. Even though I mainly work in a UNIX environment, I've decided to keep a copy in my office at Amazon.com Books as a handy reference on today's and tomorrow's trajectories of Internet software agents." – Computer Programming Expert Editor's Recommended Book, 11/01/96


Internet Agents : Spiders, Wanderers, Brokers, and 'Bots
Fah-Chun Cheong

"One of the most dreaded questions in Usenet newsgroups devoted to the World Wide Web, programming, or MUDs is "How do I write a 'bot, DooD?" Well, now that Cheong has written Internet Agents, anyone can curl up with their terminal, a bottle of Jolt, and the Internet, and roll out their own. Although much of this information is available on the net, Cheong does a good job of pulling together the heretofore scattered and sometime occult arcana of arachnology and botology. Includes sample code for WebWalker, a Web maintenance robot, and WebShopper, a personal comparison shopping program." – Amazon.com
