google.

So, I created a custom search engine called "Search without
spammers". This is a Google custom search engine and there I defined a
list of a couple of dozen of most prolific parts spammers, like
netcomponents, to be EXCLUDED from search. The list is by far not
complete, so, I would like to ask if perhaps anyone wants to try it
and contribute.

The "custom search engine" is mainly for my own use, but, of course,
you are welcome to use it too.

If you want, I can try to add you to the list of contributors so that
you can expand the list.

Thoughts?

Could you do a similar one to filter out the ones that offer to *sell*
data sheets that are available free elsewhere?

I believe he's done that by banning P*rtm*ner et alia.
