I suggest that this thread be used to gather tips on how to access new and relevant info on Segway related news. It seems that some people at TIQ manage to dig up new info. even though the rest of us dont seem to be able to turn up anyting new.
It would be advantageous for this forum to be able to post the news here first so that people will want to come here to keep updated.
Here are some of the search strategies I have used:
The main search engine I use is google.
http://www.google.com/
Finding the right key words is the key to turning up interesting info. Searching by date helps find the newest stuff. The filter helps narrow down the searh. This is very basic. I assume everybody know this.
When I find a site that has news about Segway, I often search the site for more info. Sometimes something new pops up.
I also check this site quite frequently:
http://segway.weblogs.com/
DweebCabal also has a Segway search engine:

Hopefully Frank can make a similar search engine for this forum.
It is dedicated to news about Segway. Often TIQ members find news before it is posted on the weblog though.
For checking new patent applications, patents and trademarks I go to:
http://www.uspto.gov/
http://www.delphion.com/
I cant locate the search page for the European patent office for the time being.
Newspapers that focus on the Segway:
http://www.theunionleader.com/
Here is a list of Segway news links that seem rather comprehensive:

Other tips:
Plug the names of key Segway employees into the search engines and the word Segway.
Lets have some other tips folks:

I suggest that people who do searches log the search they do on this thread. Include the date and time u did the search. That might save us some time and effort. I would think we should be able to manage to do some collaborative work on this forum.
