Nice, I like it. One problem: it shows no images (only an 'alt' text) - probably due to my Opera default settings - 'show only cached images'. Is there a way to fix it?
Thanks, Skyfex!
Nice, but I've found a possible bug with it. If you search for a keyword and hover over the results, the description at the bottom still stays there if you press esc.
Excellent tool. Very useful. Brilliant! Thanks for sharing it around.
same problem as Blysk, only different distro of Linux: "Ubuntu 6.06" Running Opera 9 final...
Useful widget but I would have liked to see the BBC H2G2 site included among the search sources. Also, I notice that the Google search picks up results 11-20 not the 1st 10 most relevant.
New release works for me now. Thanks for this widget!
Good Work
its simple clear and quick to go ,what i search,thanks, i give it 5 stars
Great widget!!! Very useful for school. Clear and simple. Just what I need
Wonderful widget. Information at your fingertips... I have only a special question: But is a proxy support planned? In more general: Is its possible to use the proxy specified in the prefs in widgets?
Better than any other search engine! And there no ads
I LOVE this! I can never wonder; I HAVE to know. Now I can. Thanks!
Awesome...
I would really like this widget if it worked better for me. When I do a search, I only get links from Thesaurus and images from Yahoo. Google, Wikipedia and Dictionary (plus images from Google if I choose that) never show.
Could use some more search engines (i.e. Ask.com, amazon, YouTube, eBay, etc.) Just a thought... Other than that, love it!
Yahoo News results do not work in version 1.2 here.
very nice tool great widget!
Love the idea here, but I just tried it and, at least for me, it only fetched results from Wikipedia. Absent were search results from Google, Yahoo News, and other sources. This was for search terms such as "ipad." I have it set to show up to 10 results. Wikipedia is all I get. Get this thing working properly and add some more generic search resources such as Bing (although it looks like Yahoo Search is merging with Bing) and I'd definitely use it all the time.
I now see that that the menu from the "i" icon let's you select all the search resources. With all of them highlighted, for the term "ipad" this widget retrieved results for Wikipedia and Uncyclopedia. But where are the other results such as for Google and Yahoo News? Unfortunately, this widget does not look ready for prime time.
