Shadowdark.org - Science Fiction | Fantasy | Horror | RPG

I have added a custom science fiction and fantasy search engine here at Shadowdark.org, it is a fairly good place to start searching the web for SF if I do say so myself. Plus I'm beta testing SF classifieds.

The spam robots won. I had to remove the contact form from the website because the spammer robots were using it to fill my inbox with spam garbage. I'll try to put something up again as soon as possible.

I have added a Science Fiction and Fantasy Forums search which searches 7 good SFF forums, and learns from us, the community, what is relevent.

I have also added a Horror Forums Search which searches 10 horror forums.

There are a number of specialized search engines available on Shadowdark.org, covering RPG articles, Sword and Planet, and H. P. Lovecraft.

For the last couple of years we ran a little SFFH meta search page which let our users search several directories. I have retired that page permanently. It got some traffic but so many of the genre directories have disappeared that it was largely broken for searching. It was always meant as a stop-gap measure anyway.

Today, I launched a horror, dark fantasy and monster search engine named: Planet Doom. I had previously operated Planet Doom as a directory on Searchking.com, but in 2004 Searchking quit repairing the broken directories so Planet Doom limped on unable to be updated for over a year, but still with many faithful users.

The new Planet Doom is a real search engine in that it spiders the URL's that are put into it and respiders those URL's at regular intervals. The focus of Planet Doom has shifted towards horror and dark fantasy a bit more, since I have another directory which covers science fiction and fantasy.

I hope you enjoy it.
