Thing 12: Keep rollin'

Rollyo is a handy little website, indeed. It's quite easy with most blogs to add a search box that lets readers flick through your archives and find all your posts about 'lunch', Rollyo takes things one step further.

After signing up, I quickly whipped up a search tool of a few websites I read most days, and some reference sites I use quite frequently. And bing, bang, boom, there it is. You can search this site right now, if you want. I didn't include the search of my favourite websites, cause it's not particularly useful or relevant to this blog.

I imagine this function of Rollyo could be quite handy. I can think of numerous occasions when I've wanted to show someone a particular post on a website, but didn't have the link to hand. Sometimes I can't even remember what site it was on. Rather than scroll through pages of pages, this search tool could get me straight to the point. Another handy tool in my belt, and better than Google for when I can't remember exactly what site something was on.
