Rollyo is a pretty cool search engine builder. I can see using it for shopping, travel, recipes, or even specific reference questions. I think the biggest problem is that it can be too limiting. One of the biggest points on search engines is to find websites you've never heard of. If you limit your research only to sites you already know about, you're probably missing out on a ton of great information.

I did a search on asparagus, limiting it to recipes and health. Almost all of the hits were either http://www.allrecipes.com/ or sponsored sites that had nothing to do with my search. I like allrecipes, but it's not the only place I want to search.
I think it can be very useful, but you have to learn how to use it correctly. It's not as easy to use as Google, that's for sure!
