A Google tip for you

[Robert]

Google is good. If you want to search a specific site for specific words or terms, use the format site:www.example.com searchword

As an example - site:www.thefret.net warren pancakes

Live link: site:www.thefret.net warren pancakes (http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Awww.thefret.net+warren+pancakes)

:D :rolleyes: :cool: :)

That is amazing. What a powerful search engine.
Do you have to type the whole string "site:www.thefret.net (http://www.thefret.net/) warren pancakes" just like this?

Geez, I don't know, Robert. After all the sound clips posted here the last few days, I was feeling really good about TheFret. But when I see the number of "hits" returned by a site search on "Warren pancakes", I'm disturbed. Deeply disturbed! :eek: ;) :D

Seriously, that's a good tip. Didn't know that could be done....

Yes, Spud, anything after the URL will be what Google searches for.

Try this one...
site:www.thefret.net potato (http://www.google.com/search?&q=site%3Awww.thefret.net++potato)

No offense but that seems to work better than the sites own search engine.

There is actually a way to add this search using google into vBulletin Robert.. I have seen it used in other forums running it.. very powerfull compared to the stock version built in..

Yes, I know, Google rocks. The forums built-in search is not as good. I will try and incorporate the Google search into our board too, when I can find the time for it. But can't we just remember where everything is?:D
