If you’re like me you’re always searching for something in your archives, and for me one of the biggest is Evernote which does have a really good search tool but sometimes you just want to shortcut it.
For those that prefer the browser interface, the folks at Evernote did a quick video and blog post about adding the ability to search Evernote to Google Chrome.
But wait a minute you said I could search Evernote with Launchy and you can by adding the same search parameters to Launchy.
Open Launchy, right click and select Options
Click on Plug-ins
Click Weby
Click the ‘+’ button
Under name enter Evernote
For the URL enter – http://www.evernote.com/search?q=%1
Click ‘Ok’
Now you can bring up Launchy, type Evernote, hit the tab key and whatever you would like to search for.
An important note – if you have multiple words in your search term be sure to place the entire string in quotes or the search will one look for the first term.
I should also note that in both cases your results are pulled and shown in the web client – if you’re logged out you’ll be prompted to log in to see the results.
Another busy week and another round of reading items to share. There are a number of Google related items in the list as the Chrome OS was made available for download for those that want to test it out (I’ve been booting from a USB drive to test it).
Enjoy the reading.
