This project was an interesting one. I wasn't quite sure what to make for my own searchroll, but after some exploring, and some thinking about searches I've done in the past that warranted less than stellar results, I found two subjects that I could work with to create something for this project.
Being that I'm an avid gardener and plant enthusiast, I decided to make a searchroll comprised of sites that offer free landscape plans. Once I created it and played around with it a bit, I decided to try another. I've had pet rabbits, and know firsthand how tricky it can be to find accurate information via internet on their care and keeping, especially if a medical issue arises. Therefore, the second searchroll I created dealt with the care and keeping of House Rabbits.
Here is my Rollyo gadget containing both my searchrolls:
At first, I kind of doubted whether this type of thing would be useful, but with all the "junk" entries you get while searching on any broad search engine, ie Google, yahoo and the like, I can now see where a customized search according to subject would be quite helpful in getting the information one is seeking without all the "sponsored link" ad-type listings. My only question is how to get the word out so that the customized search gains popularity.
