For those who haven't noticed or tried it yet
(it's hung off the "more" link on the main
google.com page, making it a bit obscure), the
new "google scholar" search engine, which uses
citations rather than links as its scoring
mechanism for rank ordering search results, is
a treat, though its coverage is still fairly
sparse, from reports, in its current "beta
release" status. You can give it a try at

http://scholar.google.com/

It gave me significantly more helpful results
that the regular google search when I tried
this, for example


http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=minimal.spanning.tree+java+source.code

FYI
