How to use the new able2know

No, he means ('cause I asked him) just going to www.google.com and doing a search. The current search on A2K is kinda raw so that makes sense.

Okay. Although it seems the search function at the top of the A2K page works just fine. I assume it does a google search within A2K posts.

It's far from the old one, which was pretty handy.

I can't wait till Craven and Nick implement a new search function..

It does (or at least it should). Hmm. One thing about using google itself is getting the posts sometimes as returns, rather than topics. Haven't experimented with that on the custom search up top.

Yes, I agree, Francis. But in terms of a "google" search, it seems to isolate just to posts on A2K, which is the best there is for the time being, until Nick decides to quit loafing around.

It isn't that good, but should get a little better (because they just started spidering the new site).

The big drawbacks from that search to the one we want to build is that that search doesn't cover all posts, and doesn't take database field input like username or date.

But yeah, that search works just as well as going to google and doing it there as it returns the same results.

I have a request: that in "My Posts" there is some indication of topics that have had new posts on them since you last checked, just like the old days of "Your posts".
