Subject: Google Search window added


  Posted by: Guru - [330592710] Mon, Jun 21, 2004, 11:52

I added a Google search window, which appears just below the listing of threads on the front page of each forum. You can use it to do a Google search on the rotoguru1.com domain, which is principally the message forum. It might be a more useful way to search for old threads, particularly if you're not sure which topic area an old thread is in.

You can also use it to launch a web-wide search.

If this turns out to be a useful tool, I'll see if a more user-friendly placement on the page makes sense.

Excellent! Sometimes I'm never sure where a thread I'm looking for is located (since we can never stay on-topic for long).

I think I can understand why moving to google, but the old way sure was a cleaner return format.

I'm not discarding the "old way". Just adding another option.

D'oh! Helps if I scrolled a little further down.

Actually, I used the google search method to find the thread I wanted anyway. Probably was a quicker method. And like that...I'm a convert!
