Search Engines
« on: March 11, 2011, 05:45 AM »
Has anyone implemented a custom search engine? Like Lucene (I think that's what it's called) or something.

I was just "trying" to search in a phpBB powered forum, and yet again, hit in the face with just how horrible some search engines are.

Is there anything you'd recommend?

Preferably in the .NET/Mono world, though something that just worked would be ok too.
