30 August 2007 Site search
Site search is implemented using Google Custom Search (external link) technology. Not only you can search for key words or phrases, but you can also limit the search to particular section, or search only author pages. The search has all the features of Google search, like support for word variations (stemming), “inurl:” and “intitle:” operators (external link) and many more.
