Its working, but kind of loopy. I tried to do a search for "RPGPundit" (the first thing I type in EVERY search engine, every day, of course), and it came up with a respectable nine pages worth of hits, but not one from either my blog, or theRPGsite, both of whom you'd think would be numbers one and two on that list?

The primary reason for this is you are not in the index. The internet is just too big for one man to find every worthy site. ;-) I will add your site tonight, along with about a dozen other submissions that this thread generated.

Yae! I'm in the index.

Not only that, but the suggested search strings are:

chaosvoyager designed
chaosvoyager just curious

Which is cool, but entirely do to my own efforts to find lost threads.

Will this thing index rpg.net's Tangency? That would be muy useful. Tangency is like Wikipedia in forum format.

Um, how would that be useful? Tangency has nothing to do with RPGs.

[imitating the 'beggin strips' commercial] Shh, dogs don't know it's not Google...

Dog: GOOOOGLE!!!!!

Dog: Only one thing smells like Google and that's GOOGLE!!!

Dog: I'd type it myself but i don't have THUMBS!!!

Dog: What's it say.... I CAN'T READ!!!

...ahem, slightly more useful, here's what rpgseek has to say:

Every site is hand verified as useful, appropriate and most importantly, tabletop role-playing related. For example, when you search for something in our "RPG Bloggers" search engine, the top results you see are for active, on-topic role-playing blogger sites. You will never see a result from some spam site, long-dead blog or Wikipedia on RPGSeek.com. Guaranteed!
In other words, rpgseek hand picks only the finest beans for roasting, so you can experience the rich robust flavor you expect from doing an RPG related search.

Neither does politics, history, religion, wars, crimes against humanity.....

Ultimately though, I just want a way to search the damn thing.
