The search feature should be improved to include more search results. For example, "edworthy open source" displays no results.

added Priority::1 - High Product::Search Type::Feature scoped labels
changed the description
There are a number of issues with the existing search facility.
Therefore I suggest adding a "any time" option and providing this by default.
Search does not allow for simple multiple keyword entries. As demonstrated within @javanick's original example, if I use the keywords "edworthy open source" then nothing is displayed, even though I (medworthy) have used the term "open source" within several previous posts and blog articles.
No boolean options. As an example, if I wanted to search for content that contains the term "open" but also doesn't contain the term "source" I would expect to be able to use something similar to "+open -source" as part of the keywords / search condition.
I think that it would be useful to also create a supplementary "advanced search" facility.
Based upon various search engines (and mainly the "advanced search" functionality that is provided by startpage.com) I have sketched an user interface concept based on this idea.

@medworthy thanks for the suggestions and work on this. I agree we need an advanced search option and more accurate results. also better auto-suggestions. will talk with the team about escalating this on priority list, just a lot going on as usual.
added Priority::2 - Normal scoped label and automatically removed Priority::1 - High label
@jotto141 & @markeharding,
Instead of trying to fix the first point that I made within my original comment, I have just noticed that the year time frame has been removed and been replaced with a maximum time frame of 30 days.
Could someone please explain the logic of this change, as it seems to be counterproductive and perverse (are the staff really attempting to suggest that no users would want to search for content that has been posted beyond 30 days ago)?
@markeharding @jotto141 Please incorporate a search by calendar or Date function. Sometimes I can't remember keywords to search for.. but, I remember about what time frame that a post was posted.. if I could pull up a calendar and click on a specific day.. then it shows all post for that day.. from the main newsfeed.. also within each Channel.. (depending on if you search from the main newsfeed page or from a Channels page.) click on 2 dates and it shows all post from those specific days,weeks,months... or years! Combine that with a Keywords search... and that would make finding our old content much easier! Thanks for your consideration!
