New from Google: the Google Custom Search Engine. You can create your own bespoke version of Google to install on your website or blog. You can limit which websites it searches, for example (making it a rival for services such as Rollyo) You can adjust what it looks like to fit the design of your site, and you can invite your community to contribute to it.
Link via BBC, which mentions the example of a climate change website which has deployed this tool so that only sites that they consider ‘solid and reliable’ rather than ‘bogus’ in their field are searched.
