Summary/Abstract: With the use the Internet for information search and especially the widespread use for this purpose search tools are related two stereotypes. The first concerns the belief that search for content online is an act extremely simple, trivial, requiring no special skills. The second myth refers to the same search engines – treated as instruments, allowing you to reach to any information that is online. These simplified and stereotyped beliefs are not limited to the realm of declarative, but manifest themselves in concrete expression of the information through the Internet behavior. The purpose of the present article is to overcome common stereotypes associated with the use of search tools, but also to show the hidden part of the Internet.
