Wed, July 1, 2009 - 7:23 PMI haven't tried it yet, but I was recently told about the search field in the gray area just above the tabs of a tribe (all posts, topics, listings, events, etc.)
For some reason I never noticed this search field. But I've been told recently that if you put the words you remember for the discussion you want into this field, it searches the tribe you are in only, not all of tribe. Hope this helps. -

I use it often..
It is okay.. but not fool proof.. and it seems it used to work better...
I switched to the google blog search (link above) but even that does not do too well.. perhaps because of the url of tribes now... -

I asked this very same question in Brainstorm..... I didn't realize that the search box was there either... however, I did try to search my threads, it pretty much sucks. LOL You need to know the topic of the conversation or at least a couple words in the title... and still, it's not that great.

Fri, July 3, 2009 - 6:07 PMIf you know some EXACT phrases from your/the posting, and sure about it - don't forget to put them in quotes when you plug them into the grey search box on top. The engine will look for the exact match, instead of general matched occurrences.
