Roddy MacLeod, The 'Long Tail' of technology information, The Innovations Report, November 7, 2006.  Excerpt:

TechXtra aggregates content from a large number of different databases containing technology-related content. A search of TechXtra will search across more than 4 million records of various kinds – articles, technical reports, digital theses and dissertations, books, eprints, news items, job announcements, video, learning & teaching resources, key websites, and more – most of which relate to technology subjects....

TechXtra aggregates, so that you don't have to. From the one TechXtra search box, you can currently search 29 databases....

In the majority of cases, the full text of items found through TechXtra is freely available....

TechXtra is a freely available service, developed at Heriot Watt University in the UK. We receive no external funding for its development, so we rely on word of mouth to spread the word. I hope you may help, and tell your colleagues about TechXtra, or blog about the service, or place a link to it from your websites.
