Default Google or search a select few sites?

Hi,

Is there a program or an easy way to search/google just a few chosen sites. I often come across a program I'm interested and like to see if that program is available for download via other sites and what reviews/opinons are available on other sites I frequent, especially Major Geeks ( because that site is unmetered by my ISP.)

It would save a lot of time if I could just search 4 or 5 of my favorite sites at once rather than having to visit each site and use its search tool.

Cheers,

For Google there is Custom Search Engin. You can create your own search engine that just searches the sites you define. http://www.google.com/cse/manage/create

Thanks for the reply. I had a look at Google's Custom Search Engine and it appears I would have to have a website in order to use it. That's not what I'm after.

I had a look at Google's 'Advanced Search' and it has an option to 'Search within a site or domain', however it only gives results for one domain. I tried using a semi-colon between domain names but it still only gave results for the first domain.

Also found a comment about about a toolbar that has the function '...Lushe allows you to easily build a list of your favourite sites, and then search only those sites using google...', however its WOT rating is very poor so I will not enter that site.


Any ideas anyone?
