[Rails] best search facility

Hi All,

this may over-lap with my recent ferret post, but I wondered if anyone
knew of the best way to add a search engine for rails on your site?

I've tried ferret, which seems a bit ''hit n miss''

Someone has also reccomeded paperclip.

In addition to this, where would I look to find the ability to add a
google contacts search facility? So - anyone can enter their account
and find people on my site who are also on gmail? Face book have this,
but dunno how it's implemented, or where to start looking...

Any help appreciated as always
