another feature you may / may not know about is searching a specific site for your information.  if i wanted to search ale.org for "nitwits" i would type it in the search area like this:

ale.org: nitwits

and then it would give me the results for the search as such:

Estimated Total Results Number = 0

(YAY! I didn't make the listing!)

I use this feature _heavily_ when researching things like "debian thin client" (debian.org: thin client).
