Mindjet Labs: New Research Accelerator in Mindjet Labs with Google Desktop Search

Thursday, November 10, 2005

We just updated the free Research Accelerator again in the Mindjet Labs to add these new features:

If you install Google Desktop Search you can now search your desktop (and GMail and chat) from the research task pane. Adding this was remarkable easy: it only took about two hours to build! This is similar to the Windows Desktop Search service that we added previously.
If you add a result set (from any of the services that we built) to the map, you will see a refresh icon to the right of the topic. Pressing on this icon requeries the service, refreshing it in the map. One way that you could use this is to do a Technorati search for your favorite term, "MindManager" and bring the topic [Technorati Search for "MindManager" (Results 1-10 of 1,996)] into the map. Press the refresh every day and I'm sure that you will see the number of results grow!
