Google Search Extension
Carine, I feel the change of search engine is good. However, by using googlesearch, we depend of the google crawl frequency. For example, the lats 5 days change are not indexed, as you can see at the top of google cache page. mathieu 16:05, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
Search extensions
The default search function of the Wiki often did not get a result, and that's why the WP9 partners have asked the system administrator to install a search enhancement extension for Mediawiki.
Some extensions are built on top of the Wiki (see Extension:RigorousSearch), some replace the search method (see LuceneSearch or SphinxSearch), and some simply use Google (see GoogleSiteSearch).
The Google Site Search seemed to be a good compromise, because of its well-known search syntax, and because it gives accurate search results.
Which extension would you suggest?
