Gary Price has a good write-up of Rollyo, a new tool to organize and narrow searches and provide focused results. More comments from Rex Hammond, Steve Rubel, Library Clips, and founder Dave Pell, among others.
Susan sez: There are other roll your own search tools in development, with more launches coming this month. Will be interesting to see user adoption for these services (translation: I think they are neat...will a broader audience use them as well?)
Thanks Susan. I've tried Rollyo and think it's very easy to use - and very useful, too. The only complaint I have is that Rollyo automatically adds an "all web" search to the custom searches it creates. This sometimes forces a person to type in extra words to refine the search, which runs counter to the idea of a topical search.
BTW, I found your post via a BlogPulse highlight page: http://blog.blogpulse.com/archives/000391.html
