CPLuv: Offical Cry For Search Function
I love this site. I visit it several times a day. It's a source of inspiration for design, it keeps me up on who's doing hot work, it leads me to entertaining things outside my field and introduces me to subjects I knew nothing about. I love most everything about it but there is one huge fail point. There is no search functionality for the news feeds as far as I know. CPLuv PLEASE add a search function like you have for jobs/people for the feeds section!!!!

Thank you !
For the moment, please Follow this link to search within cpluv feeds. :)
I've been asking for this for some time.
Thank you for the link!!!!
Word to that!
Yeah, it really isn't all that hard to have one. I have one on my site and it was an easy thing to add. It really does make a huge difference too, especially for a blog like CPLUV that has such an enormous amount of content. Without an ability to search previous posts, over time a lot of the posts become wasted information and just drop off because there is not point in trying to find something more than a few weeks old.
When making posts I use google syntax "subject site www.cpluv.com to check through posts or to make sure a link hasn't been posted before.
