Searching the old Tubenet archives

Sean, I'm having trouble searching for things in the old Tubenet archives. The Google engine doesn't seem to see what I KNOW is there. For example, I wrote many times about the recording Cantuballada, and a search on that name turns up nothing at all. How deeply into the HTML will Google search? Is there a way to revive your old search engine?

Rick, I've actually found that the best way to find something like that is to google the web. For example, I googled

+cantuballada +Denney

and found several of your posts on the matter.

Joe Baker, who would love to find a better way to catalog and index all that info.

Some months ago, I used wget to suck down the entire old tubenet, then I burned it onto a cd. I just use silly little windoze search to find what i want in the files on the disk.

I know of this limitation and have not gotten around to correcting it. The search engine I had in place beforte the move here no longer compiled easily for me on the new machine and I never took the time needed to find a proper replacement. The Google solution works very poorly.

I DO want to fix this limitation but it may be a while.

I believe I have properly indexed the old TubeNet archives. The search box is in the same place on the top left.

Sean, many thanks. I gave it a good test last night, and was able to find things I'd been unable to find using the search engine even before we moved to phpBB.
