I too have though about this and have successfully set up a search engine
to index OpenNIC sites, unfortunately, it uses so much of my servers
resources, I can't run it!

The system I have been trying is Yacy, a p2p search engine which seems
really nice in so many ways, but uses Java and sucks the life out of my
server!

it most times stop working...

there is others search's engines  like

http://seeks-project.info/wiki/index.php/List_of_Web_Seeks_nodes

Example: http://www.seeks-project.info/search_exp.php/websearch-hp

I'm still experimenting with it to see if I can get it to behave, but I
think my little V.P.S. is just too small and under powered :-(

Hey all,
One of the problems I initially found & still have with OpenNIC, is being
able to find & explore the unique websites it has to offer. I recently
did a search at grep.geek to see if I could find my website, which was
unsuccessful. How does grep.geek gets it's search results?
I think for visitors to be interested in our project, they need to have
fun surfing what's on our tld's. In order to do this, they need to be
able to find just about everything there. Let's face it, compared to all
the ICANN addresses we are tiny, so we need to show off as much as we
can. On the grep.geek page there is no info on how to make sure my
website gets culled into the search results, so that should be added to
it's FAQ page.
I think I remember that there was a way for people to explore OpenNIC's
tlds before having to change their network settings. If so, this should
some how get incorporated into the new site. If not, we should offer a
"copy" of some interesting sites to wet peoples appetites!
And yes, there is some personal interest here. I of course would like
people to find my site. That said, can Google or any other search engine
on ICANN find our addresses?
