Google Co-Op Custom Search Engine

So, I've been playing around with the Google Co-Op Custom Search Engine tool, that got released today.

For those who don't know me (all 5 of you who read this) I'm a Lotus Notes/Domino developer. So I thought the best search engine I could use would be for this very subject.

Here's what I've got so far:

Lotus Notes/Domino Search-O-Rama

Interestingly, it allows you to highlight results from certain sites. You can see I've added CodeStore.net, Jake Howlett's excellent Domino sites, and a few others, including Ed Brill's site.

If you know do a search, without any Domino terms, for example:

Saving a document from the web

you get back a set of documents that do relate to Lotus Notes. That's because I've "seeded" the search engine with those terms already. It's quite handy.

One thing it does allow is for collaboration, so if anyone else wants to get involved with this, just use the "Volunteer to contribute to this search engine" link on the main search page!
