bruckerrlb Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Hi everyone, I checked the tutorials, but couldn't find anything, so I'm wondering if anyone knows any articles on where to get started with meta searching, I'm trying to create my own search engine focused on something very specific.

bruckerrlb Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 well I"m more or less talking about creating a search engine, like google, but not nearly as gigantic, that can support strong boolean searches for the web, with heavy emphesis on specific websites where users are more than likely going to find the info they are looking for.
