Google now lets us create our own custom search engine pages, so I whipped one up for Haskell, http://www.google.com/coop/cse?cx=015832023690232952875%3Acunmubfghzq also, as a demo, embedded http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~dons/search.html Seems to do a reasonable job of targetting just Haskell sites. Feel free to add more Haskell material, or refine the search. In fact, search for mailing list items seems rather easy this way. Neil, I wonder if we could integrate this with Hoogle somehow? -- Don

great. and it search mail archives too how about adding it to haskell site, or at least a LARGE link so that everyone will see it. it will be very helpful for strangers/novices -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com

My plan was to have the community play with it for a week or so, and tune the results (i.e. volunteer and help refine the searches), and then we can embed it in haskell.org -- Don

Hi
Neil, I wonder if we could integrate this with Hoogle somehow?
If I provide an Ajax'y style API and we put the results in a frame, I'm sure we can give something like "top 3 results from hoogle" (if they make any sense). That sound a reasonable idea?
You should be able to do just that, yes. The code for embedding the search engine on my example page might be a good place to start. I think augmenting hoogle is a in general better than forking two search engines for slightly different problems. -- Don
