#3 Rollyo

http://www.rollyo.com/search.html?prevsid=606623&q=adonis&sid=606623


just found rollyo.com

It lets u create specialized search engines...great for researchers I think.
It requires a little setup and I could see where you would need to tweak it occasioanlly to add new sites, but an interesting concept, and a check on Google's monopoly.
I could see listing various museum websites for quicker searches in archives for example..

The link above is a search for a practice news search rollyo...
Could be used to filter a lot of commercial sites that lead searchers away from substantive results.
(I used my name, and the sites were cnn, reuters, foxnews, msnbc)
