Ooh, now that's what I call fancy search.
Imagine searching inside Wikipedia or Amazon.com, but on the Google search site. Google's got a test going of a way to search inside different sites from within a Google Web search results page. If you type in "amazon," "wikipedia" or "new york times" on Google, it brings up the relevant result at the top and immediately underneath is a second search box. If you type a keyword in that secondary search box it will return results from within that site.

Isn't this the same thing as typing "blah blah blah site:http://www.blahblah.com" into Google?

I think so- it might just be a way to clean up the data-entry requirements, sort of like how most sites don't require the "http://" bit anymore; we just type in "trainedmonkeyimportservices.com" or whatever, and the site loads.
