Lijit, the missing piece of Google site search and a overhauled combination of Google’s custom search engine. Usually when we think about doing search on the web the first search engine comes to our mind is Google. But there are situations when Google actually provides a lot of search results and it could be a time consuming matter to find the trusted results you were actually looking for. Let me put up a scenario, let’s say I would like to buy a digital camera, who would i ask first? I would look into my contacts, call up my colleague or a friend who is actually using digital camera for a while. I would naturally honor his/her opinion and thoughts into my consideration.
