Google Site Search

Unfortunately, the search box over on the right does absolutely NOTHING. I need to ask some questions on the forum about how to fix it, if it can be fixed–or get rid of it if it cannot. Meanwhile, I just learned something myself about Google that I will pass on to you in case you don’t know it yet. Of course, if you use IE or Firefox, you can put the free Google toolbar on it, which has site search amongst its many features. If you use K-Meleon like I do or you don’t have the Google toolbar, you can just do this, and it is really cool. Bring up the Google page in your browser and in the search box type the word or term you are searching for, then a space then the word ’site’, then a colon and then the url of the site you want searched. For example, I wanted to find the photo of Leonard Peltier that I had already hosted at Image Shack to use for the next story. I brought up the Google search, and typed the following:
peltier site:http://saoirse32.blogsome.com
I hit enter and up came several references to my posts with Peltier’s name in them. I quickly found my photograph.
I love Google!
