So you want to provide your own OER search facility
Brief Spec
You want to choose the sites that are searched
You want to be able to limit / refine the search by x,y,z
You want the results to display where? And how?
Do you want the search to be provided from a URL - say www.google.com/pats_search_tool/?
Or embeddable as a widget - html for your site?
Or as both?
Would you want the search to present data in other ways for other users (so an API could underpin it all)
Would you want search logs to be maintained
Would you want results chosen to be maintained
Embeddable social media in results
The url could also provide an RSS of all it's content
Anything else?
Maybe this is a google doc / wiki issue?
