The more I play with my Mac, the more I like. I vow that I shall write something not about the Mac soon. But for now, read this. It’s stupidly cool. And I’ll try and keep it shorter, too.
As you’ll note from the current recent entry in my sidebar, all my ‘link blog’ bookmarks are now stored in Del.icio.us (online bookmarks, with tags ala Flickr).
Mac OSX has a cool integrated desktop search feature called Spotlight and you can install a selection of plug-ins to enhance it. The following screenshot should reveal everything that’s cool about this.
Such a plug-in exists to allow searching Del.icio.us bookmarks from Spotlight. It means that you simply don’t need to use the Bookmarks feature in your browser. Just hit ?+Space and type a tag name, or the name of the site. Hit Return and the site loads in the default browser.
It’s gorgeously slick and means I wont ever need to worry about syncing my bookmarks from PC to Mac and browser-to-browser.
