I'd be interested in reading an example post like this, especially if it included a section on how best to determine relevant search keywords for a topic you're not particularly familiar with. This is something I find I have a fair amount of trouble with.
FWIW, in a few of my comments linked in http://lesswrong.com/r/discussion/lw/h3w/open_thread_april_115_2013/8p3q , I do unpack some of the steps I took to find what I did. Not really a full think-aloud protocol and I only did it in a few because it's a real hassle to write it all down as I went (you can't reconstruct it for anything but the simplest searches), but may be helpful nonetheless.
Every little bit helps, thanks.
I agree! So I created a thread to collect all that.
