I've been reading HN for several months now, and this is the first time I've seen reference to http://searchyc.com/ http://searchyc.com/. It would be more useful if it was featured in the top nav bar (but I understand it's not because perhaps pg didn't write it).
- Xichekolas 18y agoThere are several greasemonkey scripts that do just that. For instance: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/25039 http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/25039
- billturner 18y agoThanks for pointing that out.
- ambition 18y agoFor new users, the greasemonkey scripts suffer the same non-discoverability as searchyc.

- RiderOfGiraffes 18y agoI saw it mentioned shortly after I joined 80 days ago. Here is a search for searchyc http://searchyc.com/searchyc?sort=by_date http://searchyc.com/searchyc?sort=by_date There are lots of references, including many that lament that it's hard for newbies to find.

- gcheong 18y agoI also noticed, just yesterday, that there is a link to a Firefox plug-in for searching HN. The point is I only noticed it yesterday and I've been on HN over a year - same with searchyc - i didn't really know about it until I got fed up with not being able to searchyc and started googling for it. If people at HN are so bothered by dupe submissions then a search on HN should be run by the system at the point I submit a link. I shouldn't have to think about it otherwise.
