Searching the Forums is a Chore Indeed

    I know you've seen those posts...you may have received one, given one...it goes something like this:
    "Have you tried searching the forums before posting this duplicate thread?"

    I'm sure that I have suggested that someone search before they post with the best of them. In fact, I was just about to let someone have it over posting a request for a list of blogging sites. Then I attempted to search DP myself because I was going to be nice and include links. I couldn't find any list of blogging sites in the last 430 days. I even used the Advanced Search. I EVEN used Google!

    DP is so expansive that it's becoming difficult to find things around here without a highly specialized keyword. I don't know about you, but I don't have time to spend 45 minutes searching the forums prior to my every post. I guess I won't berate the noobs anymore about searching the damn forums when I can't even find things that I know are there and have been covered a million times.

    If you have tips on searching DP, please share them here so we can all help each other out.
