I wonder if we could direct people to google with suggestions on search
terminology and usage?  For example:

"One of the powers of Fedora Core is the enormous community behind it. 
You will find that community is your best resource for using Fedora
Core.  To find popular and useful websites with information, use your
favorite Web search engine, such as http://www.google.com.  Try search
terms such as:

  using fedora to <insert what you want to make Fedora do>  
  fedora multimedia software
  fedora packages"

The search results that return for those search are not controlled by us
in any way.  There are often more than 10,000 results.  We can in no way
be held responsible for what is on those pages.

Of course, IANAL, TINLA.  Just an idea I personally am having.
