The brand new, official Spaghetti Testing Search Widget(tm) is right over there on the sidebar, right under the about me blah blah text.

Why? Because Chris Brogan told me to:

The #1 thing I seek in a blog I’m returning to (versus a newly discovered blog) is a search bar. Why? Because often, I’m returning to a blog to find a story.

It’s a good point – I myself have gone to back to blogs looking for specific stories that I have recalled reading, but neglected to bookmark. Without search, it becomes very hard to find them, especially if the time lapse is longer than a few days. (or hours depending on the bloggers’ posting frequency!)

BTW, I’ve also dumped the categories listing in the sidebar – I’m not satisfied with it and it takes too much space for nuthin’. I’m switching to tags anyhow.
