Don't know if you've seen this, but Google (http://www.google.com/press/pressrel/enhancements.html) are now offering (http://www.techtree.com/India/News/Google_Offers_Users_Custom_Search/551-76728-643.html) customised searches (http://google.com/coop/cse/) (a Rollyo killer?). As an example of how this works, Eric Meyer has built a small CSS search engine (http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2006/10/24/css-search/).

Ooh, this looks nice. I can feel an AutoCAD search engine arriving at CADTutor soon. :)

Yahoo! launched their version of this two months ago (http://www.ysearchblog.com/archives/000339.html). Typically, I guess it wasn't cool enough for people to be as bothered as the Google one, so it's not got the buzz.
