My good friend in the States, Tyler, pointed out a rather nifty service that Google offer where you can create customised searches of specific web sites. He thought I could use it for my screenwriting activities, and so I gave it a go, and created a search that looks primarily at Screenwriting Blogs (plus a few other useful sites).
I though the results were particularly good, being that’s it’s Google search heuristics running in the background, so I thought I’d have a go at making the interface a bit more presentable, adding a few other related features and seeing what came out…
The result is Scribomatic – What do you think?

That is very cool! I have been using Google’s web alerts with strings like “North Carolina Film” or “Wilmington Film” on my Carolina Flicks blog and it is quite annoying as 90% of the results don’t really work. Allowing it to search a specific set of sites seem much better. This also seems like it could be tricked into being the the search engine for Google Reader too! Which Google service is this?
