title: Building a web search engine
body: <p>I've always been interested in developing a web search engine.  What's a good place to start?  I've heard of Lucene, but I'm not a big Java guy.  Any other good resources or open source projects?</p>
  
  <p>I understand it's a huge under-taking, but that's part of the appeal.  I'm not looking to create the next Google, just something I can use to search a sub-set of sites that I might be interested in.</p>
