Problem solving methods, inspired biologically or by nature, are gaining in importance. Their potential for devising new, but also for increasing efficiency of some well-known methods for solving different kinds of problems, is becoming more and more obvious. The behaviour of social insects provides a lot of inspiration. We took inspiration from honey bees, in particular the way they behave in a hive. We proposed a modified model devised for searching parts of the web online. In a series of experiments, we attempted to follow a developing story with the aim to automatically find documents (web pages) bringing news on the story. This service, working as a beehive, delivered documents as expected.
