+Within QGIS 1.1.X you can search for WMS-servers.
+Figure \ref{fig:searchtab} shows the newly created \tab{search}-tab with

+As you can see it is possible to enter a search-string in the textfield an
+hit the \button{Search} button.
+
+After a short while the search result will be populated into the tab below
+the textfield.
+
+Browse the result list and inspect your searchresults within the table. To
+visualize the results, select an table entry, press the \button{Add
+selected row to WMS-list} button and change back to the \tab{server} tab.
+
+QGIS automatically has updated your server list and the selected
+searchresult is already enabled in the list of saved WMS-servers.
+
+You only need to request the list of layers by clicking the
+\button{Connect} button.
+
+This option is quite handy when you want to search maps by specific
+keywords.
