Do you use a lot of time searching for the right information? I know I do.
The meta-web-search site [FactBites](http://www.factbites.com/) can be a way of learning about stuff that you have an inkling of. Let’s take the word [monad](http://www.factbites.com/topics/Monad) and search for that: we get a rather extensive and eclectic list of stuff about different definitions of that word.
We get these domains, basically: Greece. Alchemy. Leibniz. Functional programming.
And as I am only interested in the latter of the four, I can skip those references to Greek gods and alchemy. Now I have some out-of-context statements to work with. Most of these, I can disregard, but I have something to go on. This gives a tiny bit more information than Google does, but it automates a big chunk of what I would have done myself, using Google.
All on one page.
