Looking for a research topic is a challenging job and narrowing it down is more challenging than searching itself. I was fascinated by the topic on search engines and how they work just because I want to know more about them. My knowledge is very limited about this topic. It is a broad topic and I am trying to narrow it down but it is getting tougher for me. Finding information about it is very easy thing but it is hard for me to decide which information I need to keep and which one to discard. It is mixed feeling. Also, it’s hard to talk about the authenticity of the information. For this, I am trying my hands on different sites for the same information; not to mention that it is too much of reading and extra work. My main concern is, “How can I narrow it down..?” so that I can focus more precisely on it.
