I replaced the generic search function on this blog with a custom Google Search. It provides much faster search results, and lightens the load on the server. I'll add highlights to the search results at some point.
I also replaced the Link Blog section with the list of blog items I'm sharing on Google Reader. I switched my feed reader from Bloglines to Google Reader several months ago, and haven't looked back. The formatting of the Link Blog list is a little weird right now, so I plan to spruce it up when I overhaul the stylesheet for the site.
