I've just got back from a very enjoyable couple of days at Internet Librarian International (ILI2007), where I spoke about search hubs and custom search engines.
It was interesting that Phil Bradley, search engine aficionado and the closing keynote speaker also picked up on custom search engines as one of the technologies that the library and info professional crowd should go and have a play with.
Anyway - here are a couple of ways in to learning more about custom search, based on the presentation I gave:
Search Hubs and "Discovered" Custom Search Engines Playlist - an annotated list of links to custom search engine resources, and examples.
Search Hubs and Custom Search Engines presentation (via SlideShare).
Search Hubs and "Discovered" Custom Search Engines short paper (via Scribd).
:-)
