Twitter Search and 100x boost to search speed

Chirag

Twitter search sucks

You know it. Lets jot down why?

  • It’s slow
  • It can only search for tweets sent in the past 10 days
  • It cannot search for direct messages
  • It’s not easy to search for tweets in your timeline
  • It’s not search-as-you-type like Google Instant (I know this is too much to ask for when the search itself is rudimentary)

CloudMagic is an answer for all this. Today, CloudMagic extends its search speed & simplicity to Twitter. Although CloudMagic cannot solve Twitter search as a whole, it helps you search for all your tweets/retweets, direct messages & tweets in your timeline – all of this search-as-you-type. Needless to say you can search for your tweets even when you are offline. Twitter is the first non Google service that CloudMagic is indexing & below is the consolidated list of all supported services:

  • Gmail
  • Google Apps Email
  • Google Docs
  • Google Apps Docs
  • Google Calendar
  • Google Apps Calendar
  • Google Contacts
  • Google Apps Contacts, and
  • Twitter

Yes, one search bar & you can search across all these services instantly!

Up to 100 times faster search results

CloudMagic is known for speed. It is already fast. Well, that doesn’t stop us from making it faster. Our internal tests have shown that the current release serves search results up to 100 times faster than before. Thanks to those optimizations under the hood. We believe that every collective second you save adds up to the overall search experience.

Easy & fast access to data = less frustration = more productivity!

We are excited about this release & would love to have your feedback. On a closing note, what other services would you like on CloudMagic?

Cheers,

CloudMagic adds Google Calendar support

Chirag

Hi,

You have always loved the blazing search speed of CloudMagic. As one user puts – How can I forget the myriad hours I have saved [searching] with CloudMagic? We have been continually adding new online services under CloudMagic. With every new service added, not only are you saving more time but also reaching the data easily.

Easy & fast access to data = less frustration = more productivity!

Although there are tens of services to be indexed, what our users missed the most was Calendar. Today, we are happy to announce the support for Google Calendar. Whether it is “important meeting with your client” or “date with your partner”, you don’t need to juggle between tabs or wait for minutes for the results. Its there right in your CloudMagic – fast, easy & integrated (works offline too) search for your online data. With the addition of Calendar we have covered most of the widely used Google Cloud services. Listed below are the supported Google & Google Apps account services:

  • Emails
  • Contacts
  • Calendar
  • Documents
  • Spreadsheet
  • Presentation
  • Form

CloudMagic Calendar Search

We are excited about this release & would love to have your feedback. Twitter support is coming next.

CloudMagic – Instant Search 2.61 Released

Chirag

Hi,

Thanks for such a overwhelming response to our last release. We gave you more interfaces to access CloudMagic. You wanted to hide the ones that you don’t want. With this release you can hide CloudMagic search bar inside Gmail’s &/or Google Doc’s interface.

Printing a document in Google Docs printed CloudMagic search box as well. This releases contains a fix for this.

Offline Gmail search & more interfaces to access CloudMagic

Chirag

Hi,

The most awaited feature offline search is out. You can access super-fast search of CloudMagic when you are even offline.

This release also boasts of usability enhancements. Now you can access CloudMagic in many more ways. Use it the way you like it. With this release you can search in CloudMagic through Chrome’s Omnibox & Browser Options (toolbar popup).

In Omnibox type ‘c’ & hit tab (or space) to activate CloudMagic & enter the search term.

You even get instant search results in the Omnibox drop-down as you type.

Just click on the CloudMagic Browser Options icon to see CloudMagic search bar. Just by using this feature for a week, I personally saved a lot of time, as I can access the search results without opening Gmail’s interface or switching to the tab where its open. No matter what you are browsing, CloudMagic’s search results are just a click away.

To summarize you can access CloudMagic’s super-fast search results through following interfaces.

  1. CloudMagic search bar inside Gmail’s interface
  2. CloudMagic full page search bar
  3. Chrome’s Omnibox
  4. Chrome’s Browser Actions

Firefox users can find the following shortcuts to access Interface-2 listed above:

  1. Toolbar
  2. Tools menu
  3. Context menu

We are excited about this release & are eagerly looking forward to your feedback.

CloudMagic now works with Firefox 4

Chirag

Hi,

Firefox 4 is awesome! It contains huge performance enhancements. From faster start up times and graphics rendering to improved page load speed, you’ll notice the difference instantly. It couldn’t have been achieved without making substantial changes to the things under the hood. Hence many plugins – including ours – were not compatible. With this release CloudMagic works with Firefox 4. This release also contains a fix for Firefox crash (very rare) on Mac.

Click here to download CloudMagic 2.3
