Personally, I do a lot of searching for technical questions related to PHP routines and there's a certain site which charges money for answers that I absolutely hate, I'll never use them ... so I'd kill for a way to remove the site from all future web searches.

And for using our application! We're please to hear that you like it. We think there's actually an interesting compatibility between SearchWiki and Surf Canyon. The former is real-time explicit personalization - users can manually move results around. The latter is real-time implicit personalization - results are automatically moved around based on implicit signals. We believe that the two work together nicely, but we always appreciate feedback.
