Also, it's not hard to make a keyword search that adds that automatically. On firefox, left-click the google search box/"Add a keyword for this search", save it with the keyword "g" somewhere. Then look for it in your bookmarks menu, right-click/properties and edit the query string until it fits your tastes. (The %s will get replaced with your search terms.) Mine is like 200 chars long.
After that, you can use g <something> in the address bar to search for something with a sane query.
Greasemonkey (or Opera user javascript as I believe that's mostly compatible) script to remove experts-exchange results from any google query. Saves you from having to use a different search or use -site: stuff.
Should be easily extendable to hide/dim/highlight/whatever any sites you want to see less/more of.
I came across 3 or 4 experts-exchange pages today when looking to fix a small apache issue.
