A while back I created [1] a Google Custom Search profile [2] for blogs listed in the Code4Lib Planet aggregator [3]. It hasn't been updated since 2006. I see in the control panel for Google Custom Search that it is possible to add other Google accounts as administrators, and I'm certainly open to doing that. (Anyone: send me your Google account ID and I'll add you.)
