try investigating ElasticSearch running on AWS (or even on azure), providing not only 'search', but if you study carefully and understand percolation there are some exciting possibilities.

Who said anything about toolbar?  I said a search bar which is built into the website like every other search engine.  No installs.

I wouldnt say its the most spectacular search engine but it is a bitcoin one


I'm thinking one that uses the yahoo or google search bar.  Maybe just a bitcoin logo and everyone in the community that has google as their homepage could use this one and not lose anything. (except maybe the fancy daily drawing).

But, it could be kind of fun to have someone in the community submit their daily drawing.
yey more spyware/adware is exactly what we need

What? I fail to see how a community drawn logo on top of the standard google search bar is spyware or adware?  Google adsense shows on the real google homepage too not just their paid for search bar.  The results are the exact same and can easily be removed with adblock plus or the like. 

To each their own I guess.
because google/yahoo toolbar is spyware Wink

Is there a search engine built yet that uses google adsense for search or the yahoo equivalent?

I was thinking something similar to this but make it much less intrusive, maybe just a bitcoin logo and a search bar.  Since most of us use these search engines anyway getting people in the community to search through it instead should be a piece of cake.

We could use the proceeds to go to a variety of different projects.

The site would be similar to this:

http://www.goodsearch.com/

If it doesn't exist and someone is interested in working with me to build it shoot me a PM.

There was something somewhere I just forget where :/
