Why Doesn't TOTV's Search Function Work Better?
 

Are there any plans to improve TOTV's "Search" function? Many times I'll search for words or names that I recall were posted earlier and come back empty. As this site's content grows, the search function will become more necessary and more valuable. Anyone else have a similar observation?

George,

I don't fully understand our search either.

You can try Google, but make is specific to our site.

Go to google.com

enter your search terms following this.

site:talkofthevillages.com xxx

Your search term would go where the xxx is.

Tony. You have made my day. I never knew that little trick!

:coolsmiley:

PS. I would be careful using xxx on google :)

Tony :
I think you made my day also. I thought I was the only person having trouble with the search option. I gave up on it .:coolsmiley:

Interesting. I never knew you could you google to search individual sites. I'll have to try that in the future.

Me too. Thanks for the info.

Yas! I entered talkofthevillages+nice administrator and my picture came up.

Tony, It worked as advertised. Glad I asked. Got any more useful tips?

George

You sure that wasn't a picture from a "wanted poster" at the local post office??

:confused:;):police:

Tony,
Remember it's Good to be wanted!

ha-HAAAAA!

Now who is the nice administrator?

Darn, Tony. You beat me to it.

Hey, Tony, why don't you place a Google search box right on TOTV? There's a radio button that makes it specific to this site. See the bottom of any page at http://www.drmirkin.com/ for an example of this. Set up a google Adsense account to install it. You will even make a little money from it.

We have talked about this for a while, and we are talking about it again.

We talk too much. Should have done this month's ago when Talk Host suggested it. I think he invented it.

While you're at it, you might want to add Google Adsense for content -- painless revenue.
