We use Adsense, but I don't know what Adsense for Content is.

Sorry, now I see it -- that's what you're already using -- so making the search box will be easy ("Adsense for Search").

Default Love it!

Tony,
Thanks so much for that great search trick! Worked like a charm.....I had no idea - 2 years ago I worked on improving the Search function on a global/corporate web site by changing rankings, adding synonims,etc and never stumbled upon that. I absolutely love it! I will definitely use that little trick, thank you!!

Tony, Do you know how frequently Google's spiders index content on TOTV?

Curious George

May have answered my own question, "within hours." Stuff posted last evening was searchable less than five hours later.

tony, can you incorporate google into totv search, sounds like a great idea, but how do we remember how to do it 3 months from now (also what about the other 15,000 members that may not view this thread....gn

If we can find where to place the Google search on our pages, I'm sure Darrell will get it in there.

Then you will not have to remember how to do it, but don't forget it works on any web site so put it on a little sticky note and paste it to your forehead.

Of course you could always search here for this thread.

About the spiders? I don't know how often they crawl, but they are around a lot. I think constantly. Take a look down the Who's Online page and you'll find a bunch of spiders always around.
