My cool idea for Google - organizing search results
Why can't we organize seach results like a folder in the Finder organizes files? We could sort results by date created/modified, size, domain, etc. I'm sure someon's thought of this already, and Northern Light back when it actually worked (what's up with that anway, not searching the ACTUAL internet) Search Folders grouping results by catagory was cool. But why doesn't Google do this already? I just realized I needed this when I was doing homework for my Issues in Biotech class looking for news on Biotech companies. Since biotech is changing so frequently sorting by date would have helped me a lot. If you could invest in 5 biotech companies what would you invest in? I had to hammer this out right before class so I said Celera, Amgen, and Bayer (makers of Cipro which might become popular considering what we're getting into with Iraq.)
I need two more I'm going to just quickly pick before my class starts, but if I can change them, what should I pick?

Better?
Now, as to the actual original topic, Sherlock at one point way back when used to let you save searches. I had a bunch of 'em that I used for research. Want to see the latest developments in your field? Just select all the search files and double-click. Voila.
Sadly, that's gone now. Would love to see it back.
Kickaha I wonder why they killed that; I bet it will return.
However, I am still wondering why Google doesn't already let you sort results with data like this. I mean it is incredibly useful and can't take that much resources. Should I file for a patent? I called it!
