Possible solution for those who don't search

I just came across something on a linux forum that is interesting. It certainly wouldn't solve the whole problem but it may help out. It kinda tricks people into searching

Hopefully this hasn't been mentioned already.. it looks like they are using vB as well so maybe it's a plugin of some sort.

It does look like a vB hack or possibly an inline search prompt. What forum was this on?


My fear of this is that, like every other attempt to get people to search rather than start a thread, is that "it's easier to start a thread".

Can you link the site? I looked at a bunch of linux sites and none of them had that feature.

That site has a "similar threads" hack too. Sweet.
