something else I toyed with for a while were the Google API's.  My old 
personal page had a custom Google search that integrated it's engine into my 
site (not even Google in the URL), and it worked quite nicely.  You still 
had the results from Google, but none of the fluff.  Actually I just chcekd 
my old site, and the search is still on there -- http://www.totallynerd.com.  
I haven't updated it in a LONG time, but I think I have links on there (if 
they still work) on how to do the Google API's.
