Google announced a new search solution that allows you to create your own search engine. The advantage for a network like ours, which is already at 75 blogs and growing, is that this allows you to search all of our sites at once.

Google made it very simple to add to your site and completely customize it. Within a very short time we rolled it out, fully integrated and customized to all 75 of our sites. Because of the slick custom install we’ve written for Wordpress it will automatically be added to new sites. With how easy this is to customize I just don’t understand why some people are leaving it with the default “look and feel” pointing to Google.

This is still a new product from Google and they have a few minor kinks to work out, like minor width and height issue, but otherwise it’s a very welcome addition to Google’s suite of tools for webmasters.
