This is pretty cool! Do you think people will use this as opposed to individually searching forums or just using the 'site' feature on Google?

This to 1) combine searches from multiple sites in one list 2) use combination of search terms across all the sites. I don't think it is easy to do with google query language :/

Yeah, I have to be selective of reddit groups (whole Reddit search is impractical). It now covers a dozen groups around programming, software design, startups, marketing etc. I it is easy to add more if you are interested.

Could you add a page with the list or a section on the site with the list?
