The new Protoball site gives users two types of searches: “Site Search” and “Enhanced Search.”

Site Search gives complete, up-to-date, unformatted results. It's usually a little faster than Enhanced Search.

Enhanced search gives nightly-updated, formatted results for most of the site but not all of it: the results come from various categories of information such as Chronology, Pre-pro Baseball, and Glossary of Games entries Bibliography entries, etc., and are presented within those categories. After running an enhanced search, specific entries can be marked as "important;" the searches, including which entries were marked important, can be saved and shared with other diggers.
