Hi,

I think Tim's Google trick is really cool and until we have a better
search engine ourselves, we should definitely put a search box like
his on our home page.

The only downside is that Google indexes our site only once a month.

On my sites, I have in the past used http://htdig.org. The search
results are just as fast and precise as google's, but you control when
and what you index. A cron script once a night should be fine.

Axel
