Re: Google

There shouldn't be a space after the colon. e.g.: "IBM i" site:ibm.com

either.

Furthermore, when the results are displayed, look at the search box in the
google toolbar. The "site: ibm.com" portion is gone. But it's still
there
in the search box on the results page.

Trying to search some midrange stuff on google lately and, man, does
google stink. Searching for strings surrounded by double quotes is not
respected - it still breaks apart the phrase. specifying site:ibm.com
still lists links to numerous other sites. Am I doing something wrong?
