My Computer Related Search Engine!

Now that my web crawler has collected a considerable amount of pages (nearly 20,000), I have decided to open my search engine. My web crawler was designed to search the web for computer related web pages (such as programming, hacking, etc). I just made the search engine today however, and there is still more to add (such as the Report Link button). Also, if you find any exploits or bugs (which I know there will be) I ask that you please tell me instead of using them to your benefit. Thanks!

As a first piece of advice, it would be nice if your search engine did not require Javascript to be functional. Many people, like myself, quite like to surf with NoScript. Also, Javascript is not necessary to implement a functional search engine.

Yes, I know, but JavaScript allows for me to add some cool effects. I guess in a few days I could make an alternative layout for people with JavaScript turned off.

Then, in a few days, I will check it out. :)
