Yuku free message boards

I've learned that when searching, sometimes less is better. Though some search engines are better than others.

At work we order supplies via on online system and I can find the items that no one else can.

For example, they will search for "printer cartridges" and not find what they want. I'll search for "cart". The system has the item listed as "cartridge, toner" so the first search criteria finds nothing. Using cart gets more items than I need, but it does find the item I want.

Or the time, they wanted a dolly. I tried to think of other terms that could be used and found that it either under "hand" or "truck" as the system called it a hand truck.

On my board, I've found better results searching for one word rather than two. If I search for a player topic by just the first name or just the last name, I'm more likely to find the topics than when I search for the full name.

I may have to try 2 or 3 times on yuku before I find what I wanted, but it's better than not finding it at all on ezboard.
