Google now has a new search page: Google Scholar
(Note that it is a BETA version)

Of course I had to try to search for POV-Ray there:

   http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=POV-Ray
   http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=POVRay


About Google Scholar:

"Google Scholar enables you to search specifically for scholarly 
literature, including peer-reviewed papers, theses, books, preprints, 
abstracts and technical reports from all broad areas of research. Use 
Google Scholar to find articles from a wide variety of academic 
publishers, professional societies, preprint repositories and 
universities, as well as scholarly articles available across the web."


Here's a few other relevant searches:

   http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=raytracing
   http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=rendering
   http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=texturing
   http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=lighting
   http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=3d+graphics+modelling
   http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=subdivision+surfaces
   http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=meshes+OR+meshing
   http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=isosurface+OR+isosurfaces


While speaking about Google; I just learned that it has two
other interesting specialized search pages:

   http://www.google.com/linux
   http://www.google.com/bsd

Also nice is the "Google Alert", it sends you an e-mail when there is 
something going on about a given subject.

The past month I got three POValerts:
<http://developers.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/11/24/1358217
&from=rss>
<http://www.directionsmag.com/press.releases/?duty=Show&id=10592>
<http://p2pnet.net/story/2926>


Too keep track of what bloggers have to say about POV-Ray, use the 
"technorati" search engine.

http://www.technorati.com/

There is a Technorati API, so one could create a script to daily follow 
what's going on in the bloggers world. Have not tried it yet though.
