Two questions as I am a curious bugger. :D

Is it possible to search for a thread (or threads) from a certain date? I see in the search feature you can do, say, two weeks till present. But you do a search like, Sept 18 2009?

Secondly, what is a search tag cloud and whats it do? Why do I see so many random words in different sizes and boldness at the bottom of the search page? Is that the computer trying to suggest words it has grabbed telepathically from my mind? ;)

Just wondering!

Thanks!

Robert

First, no, can you cant search a certain date - just the options on the advance search page (which has limitations).

Second, the "search tag cloud" - Tag cloud - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - weighs the value of the words on the page and attempts to show links to other relative content based on the keywords determined by that page.

Thank you Sir! That answers both my questions! :)

Not to mention I am an expert (the word expert used VERY loosely!;)) on tag clouds now! Never realized they were used outside of the VCA site!

Anyhoo, thanks for taking the time to answer my questions! :hail:
