Beta FreeBSD Search Engine

Posted by michael on from the locate-a-booth-babe-near-you dept.

petef writes "In my spare time, I've been buildling a FreeBSD Search Engine. I am hoping it will be of use to everyone; it pulls the top 3 search results off some major search engines (FreeBSD.org, google.com/bsd, etc). I'm looking for people to give it a run and give me some feedback on it. Thanks!"

  1. Use get rather than post by quinto2000 · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Search engine queries should be sent using GET rather than POST. This lets people bookmark the search results, which is very important.

  2. It's works good, but hats it by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I have done a few searches and it does give relevant results, which I certainly like. However, it's a little on the ugly side. Try using different colours and art and I will give it my seal of approval.

      Suggestions as to which colors would be better?
