Hi All,

We have set up BlawgSearch so that you can add the results to your 
own site with your own header/footer (and/or sidebars), and can limit 
the search to particular categories.

My puppy Sheba did it... for animal and dog law blogs... you can too. 
It is easy :)

Here is an example on Sheba's dog law web site
http://doglaw.hugpug.com/search/


And he is an example on using a blog post on Sheba's blog
http://www.hugpug.com/sheba/2006/01/hugpug_blawgsea.html



We basically put the results without the hBlawgSearch headers and 
footers into an iframe on a page on your Website or blog. We have 
default dimensions for the iframe, but you an change those by 
adjusting the width and height of the iframe in the html code. If you 
have setup a Google Coop, the idea is very similar.

You can have the default ordering be by relevance or date, and can 
show 10 or 20 results per page. We are not showing any ads on the 
results, but you are free to place ads on your pages if you want.


The Web page for getting your own BlawgSearch code adding is
http://blawgsearch.justia.com/friendcode.aspx



You fill out  form and it then gives you html code to copy.

The one thing you need to know up front is the url of your Website's 
page you would like to have the results show up on, as that it is the 
page that is being used in the search form (we will write up some 
instructions for this over the weekend). So either setup a blank page 
or blank blog post ahead of time, and then use that url as the url 
for your website you would like the results to appear in.



We think the real value is setting up the different category searches 
that match the site or blog. Thus if you had a blog on family law, 
you could search the family law blogs (with an option to search all 
of the blogs if you wanted it).

Anyway if you would like to use the BlawgSearch results on your own 
web pages, feel free to do so. We will do a more formal announcement 
once we get some initial feedback and have written up some simple 
instructions.


Peace,

Tim

note: we do not currently have a lot of Animal and Dog Law blogs, so 
try a search on the word "animal" if you want to test out the 
category search. But we wanted Sheba to be involved, so that is why 
we choose Animal and Dog Law Blogs.
