The new Custom Search tool from Google is Awesome. Now you can put a custom search on your site and not only have it search your own site, but as many other sites as you want. There are fine customization controls, and the possibillities are endless. For example, check out the custom L.A.M.P. search block in the top right. This custom search block took seconds to create and searches perls.org, search.cpan.org, php.net, mysql.com, drupal.org and api.drupal.org. I will add more to it in the future, but I am really impressed with the usefullness of this tool. It allows site owners to provide more relevant searches for their users. You can also share your search by making it public and even allow other users to update your search.
