When you search the News Achive, you get a page of results but you can't copy the link to send to someone else. Try for yourself, you'll get http://www.neowin.net/search.php and believe me, there are a lot of noobs around on the Internet and on my MSN Messenger Contact List who don't know how to search so I'd rather give them direct links to search results.
Would it be possible to implement better URLs when search?
