Actually it absolutely doesn't work like Google. Google doesn't include all your search terms, it tries to predict what you are looking for. FT search is exactly the opposite. You cannot find what you are looking for in a simple search. You use an advanced search to try to get closer. I haven't seen it yet where Google doesn't actually include the word when you put it in quotes. On FT search you can search "by post" and it'll pop up a result that doesn't actually have the word you searched for in the post. Because it is in the wiki.
