Hey John,
There actually was another one similar to this that recently launched iGrep.com. It's owned and operated by DevShed.

IT.com does have a great idea. I like the vertical search idea, you don't always want all the results out there and not everyone knows how to write a search string that limits results enough, without losing some good results.
IT.coms results seem kind of limited however. Does anyone know of other vertical search engines, IT or otherwise, that are good but maybe just flying under the radar?
