Set up your own search with lijit

I was looking at lijit today a very interesting search widget that allows you to put together a search of all the online content that you publish or read.

I've published my lijit here, it searches my vox blog, del.icio.us bookmarks, google shared items, flickr photos and linkedin profile as well as a few of the blogs that I read which I'll keep adding to. It did make me think about all the information that I already publish and make available online. Perhaps someone will have some thought on how to manage my digital identity at this evening's mashup event on that very subject. I'll try a post from there later.

I'd like to include the lijit search on my Vox page but the feature allowing you to embed code widgets isn't launched yet. I think it might be in private beta at the moment. I hope they launch it soon; I'm looking into APIs and Widgets and the lack of this feature is making me think about setting up another blog to look at and trial some of the more techie / open stuff. That'll be yet another blog to search with lijit...
