One downside to searching for mortgage industry related content in Google is that it doesn’t differentiate between consumer focused sites, and sites that play to a professional audience. Imagine if you could make Google only search for wholesale lender web sites instead of every retail page. Imagine if you could search news and blog sites that cater to you, and not consumers. Imagine if some blogger with insomnia stayed up until 3:00 AM inputing over 250 hand picked sites into a search engine just for you. Imagine no more. 
After an earlier failed attempt at such a tool, I’m happy to announce that Google’s new Custom Search application has allowed me to finally offer a search engine that works.
Use to to find a new contract processor. Use it to find news stories on subjects that might interest you. Use it as a training tool to quickly find information for terms you are unfamiliar with. Use it, then tell all your piers how it changed you life forever!!!

Very, very cool tool. How long did it take you. I can think of so many other topics I’d like to isolate and create a separate search engine for.
Well done.
Well, it’s hard to say. I already had most of the sites in my database, so uploading saved alot of work. REMBEX is a better example. I manually visited all of the sites, plus nearly as many dead sites, and clicked them into the search engine. That part took me about 5 hours. Codeing the HTML took a couple hours, but you don’t have to do that if you don’t mind Google’s premade page.
