Result-sorting and better filter queries in Google Custom Search Engines

Google's have added result-sorting and compact queries for filtering-by-attribute options to their Custom Search Engines (ref: Adding a custom search engine to your blog).

These are most relevant for people who use a CSE over their own blog/site, rather than over other sites which they don't control the markup.

Sorting:

If you have specificd PageMaps, rich-snippets or meta-tags for your posts, you can add them as an option that is available to people who use your custom-search-engine. Do this in CSE by

• Enable sorting (www.google.com/cse > Control Panel > Basics)
• Adding the key.

Compact-queries:

The language that is used to state a qeury against defined attributes now supports "and"-ing values together in a more compact way.
