[R] Google Custom Search Engine for R

[Matthew Keller]

Hi Sergio,

There was a discussion on this board recently about the difficulty of
searching for "R" related material on the web. I think the custom
google search engine is a good idea. It would be helpful if we could
have access to the full list of websites it is indexing so that we
could make suggestions about other sites that are missing. As it is,
it only tells us that there are 35 websites, and shows us the first
several.

Also, you might check out Sasha Goodman's Rseek: http://www.rseek.org/

Have you tried to compare the success of yours with Rseek?

All the Best,

Matt
