Omgili -- A Search Engine for Forums
Reading MetaFilter today I came across a post about Omgili
Omgili is a search engine specifically designed to index forums. There's soooooo much great information posted in forums but it's not always easy to find it. Sometimes Google provides useful results from forums, but sometimes it doesn't. One area I've found them extremely helpful for is tech-related issues, including computer problems. When reading the help and the FAQ doesn't help, and visiting support section of the manufacturer's website doesn't get the job done, sometimes forums are a great way to get the help you need. And of course the best thing about forums is that if your specific question hasn't already been asked and answered, you can sign up and ask it yourself!
Another cool think about Omgili is that you can add it as a search option to your Firefox Search Bar. I've just added it and I'll give it a shot to see how it works out.
