Default How to search for potential repeat videos these days ?

Hi guys.

Been a while !

I'm hoping to become a little more active again and start posting what I consider to be good video finds.

My problem is that I use to (years back...) always to a search first on the URL to help ensure it's not a repeat of something already posted.

However, now, it seems these searches no longer work - I assume related to videos now being embedded instead of the URL being textual in the post the way is once was.

The problem is that I haven't been very active keeping up with the posts of others, so have no idea if my finds already exist, and with out URL search functionality, I suspect much of what I might post will be repeats.

I can search "tags" for key words in the video titles, but experimentation so far showed that's not a very reliable method.

Suggestions ?

...Should I just post and not worry about pre-existance ?
Or should l I just not post since I'm not up on what's currently in the archives ?

I'm going to do a very small post today, and see if anyone jumps on me about being repeats... hmmm...

Thanks
-Bruce
