For those of you who are basic Googlers, there is an advanced search 
function that many are not aware of and that can be very helpful. It 
used to be easy to get to but now I can’t find the link on a main Google 
page. Anyway, I use a bookmark http://www.google.com/advanced_search.

One of the things it can do is to limit the search to a specific domain 
(e.g. poca.com) or sub-domain (e.g. poca.com/mailman). You can do most, 
if not all, functions directly in the search box but usually it's easier 
to use the advanced search window. An exception is just searching a 
specific domain. In the search box just type site:domain.com (e.g. 
site:poca.com {no space after the ":") and then your search terms 
(actually the order doesn’t matter, terms can come before and/or after). 
Using Google is faster and much better than the old POCA search. Have 
fun searching!
