FIND THOSE BC POSTS

Visit Google.com
In the search box enter: site:pajamasmedia.com/richardfernandez

That is the foundation of searching only for the BC portion of pajamasmedia.com. We build the search from this. Remember to always have a space after /richardfernandez.

SEARCH FOR SPECIFIC POSTER COMMENTS
site:pajamasmedia.com/richardfernandez “Leo Linbeck III”
>>This will bring up all occurrences of threads on BC where Leo Linbeck III made comments.

Surrounding something in quotes forces Google to find EXACT matches of the search for phrase.

SEARCH FOR POSTS BY DAY OF YEAR
site:pajamasmedia.com/richardfernandez inurl:”/2009/04/26/”
>> match the date just like above. This will pull up threads on that date.

SEARCH BY MONTH OF YEAR

site:pajamasmedia.com/richardfernandez inurl:”/2009/04/”
>> The above search query will find all posts in April, 2009.

SEARCH FOR POSTS BY TITLE
If you can remember part of the title of a post this will find it for you:

site:pajamasmedia.com/richardfernandez inurl:dreamed

>> this search will find all posts that have the word dreamed in the post title. Obviously, just replace dreamed with whatever word you are searching for that was in the post title.

COMBINED SEARCHES – If you’re looking for a comment by a specific poster and all you know is the month it happened…

site:pajamasmedia.com/richardfernandez inurl:”/2009/04/” “Leo Linbeck III”
>> You must include the space after the last quote of the inurl portion. You can combine searches in very powerful ways.

SEARCH FOR GENERAL WORDS OR PHRASES (NOT EXACT MATCHED)
site:pajamasmedia.com/richardfernandez fighter pilot
>> This finds occurrences of the words ‘fighter pilot’ in any order.

Again, you can combine the search features in methods that make it quite easy to find old posts – even if all you can remember is just a few bits and pieces….
