I would say in your example:

        template <class Container, class Item>
        Container::iterator find(Container &c, Item const &v)
        {
            return find(c.begin(), c.end(), v);
        }

So the above becomes:
        Container::iterator i = find(myVector, someInt);
        if (!i)
        {
          // not there
        }


Generally: all global functions from algobase, which takes two pointers 
(start and finish iterators) should have overloaded 'brother'-function
without these arguments to make operation on all elements of the 
container (most usefull case).
