live.com search integration
Yes, at the present time have Google adsense on my blog. It barely pays for the hosting of www.nickhodge.com. Virtually no revenue stems from the embedded Google Search.

Time to change my search provider.
Over to http://dev.live.com/livesearch/ and specifically http://search.live.com/siteowner.

From random thought to implementation: 3 minutes.
