the deal is you can connect to it.. and you ask a question and a frame in the right of the window of that site starts a conversation with a librarian somewhere in australia who chats to you and helps you with your question.. anyway, i needed some help with my chem assignment and decided to use this great service that J-Man recommended to me.. little did i know how much fun it could be..

Ben Stewart: What chemical properties of Guarana and Caffeine make them act as stimulants on the human body?

A librarian will be with you in about a minute.

[Librarian2-VIC - A librarian has joined the session.]

Librarian2-VIC: Hello ben

Librarian2-VIC: have you done any looking yet yourslef?

Ben Stewart: i have looked on the internet and found nothing substantial.. just ads for guarana products and explaining the effect.. not what properties of guarana/caffeine cause them to do this

Librarian2-VIC: Ok

Librarian2-VIC: Try this search...caffeine "chemical properties" stimulant

Librarian2-VIC: and same for guarana too.
