On Personal Search Engines

I read a blog post titled Personal Search Engines with interest (HT Steve Makofsky). The author, Jason J. Gullickson, describes building a prototype federated personal search engine seeded with domains from his RSS feed collection. I like the idea of a personal search engine and have had trying YaCy to that effect on my personal “to-do” list for some time. This very interesting post (and perhaps interesting software in the future) reminded me of the topic (a “PSE” project is not imminent, however).
