Experiments in custom search engines

It's possible to create custom search engines which only search web sites which you specify. The important thing in web search is removing the false hits, which will otherwise distract you from the pearls of good information out there. I have just developing a custom search engine in Google Co-Op that searches business library web sites and the business-related blogs. The intention is to make a collection of reputable and reliable web sources, that will offer fewer false hits than a general search engine. Please note, it's very much a work in progress. If you know of a site that should be included, please send a comment to let me know. Alternatively, if you think a site should be excluded, I'm interested in hearing that as well.
