Hey, you can GOOGLE through DU now!
Another nice touch, Skinner, Elad, at al. That ought to be a real handy addition (although it might be a disincentive for people to become donors).

3. Donors can still search the "old fashioned" way, which I appreciate
because while I'm sure this is good news for DU's servers, Google doesn't search via time period. I have, however, been able to type in my user name and a date (like this: Mar-03-03) and pull in some pre-'04 DU posts!
