I got this mail from a list. Could Drupal do this with some search engine? Louis is a world leader in Information Architecture and a Publisher.
Drupal could do this in a VERY interesting way drupal site-to-drupal site. I've begun spec'ing bits of this and know of at least 2 groups with funding to put towards this. Think: * Search on local site by default * In a sidebar, do an XML-RPC request with results returned from remote domains via AJAX * Could cache remote results and/or push local results to remote (shared index) and/or track relevancy (which ones do people click on?) * Final interesting piece: retrieve remote nodes that matches search via publish-susbcribe and store locally as first-class content -- "matching" content naturally moves through a series of inter- connected websites depending on where/when people search for that content Just an implementation away from reality :P
Best Gunnar

I'm looking for a search tool that will do this:
1) Search multiple domains that would be predetermined by me (a la Rollyo) 2) Return results via RSS 3) Is free (or cheap)
I thought that Google might somehow support this via its API. It might, but I can't figure out how to make Google search multiple domains.
Any ideas?
cheers
