Upcoming search widget
We’re currently working on a new and more colorful search widget - and it’ll give you the option to choose your favorite search engines to appear in the list (Google, Yahoo, Amazon, Dictionary.com, Ebay, IMDB…). Please tell us what your favorites are, so that we can make sure as many of them as possible are included in the widget…

A friend and I both have Wikipedia and IMDB in our search boxes. Would love to see an Amazon search. Any idea if there is or will be a form of support group/forum for Protopagers? I read the messages posted here and have learned some from others’ Protopages, but it’d be nice to have a single source.

I am frequently looking at new haircuts and would like a search facility for mullets, for instance trawling www.ratemymullet.com
February 28th, 2006 at 4:46 pm
It would be great to see a YubNub search (http://www.yubnub.org ). From YubNub, it is possible to use command-line calls to run all those other searches you listed.
February 28th, 2006 at 5:32 pm
Great! I will love if you add YubNub as default search engine. With this one you can have any other.

how about netflix
February 28th, 2006 at 5:40 pm
I would like those I have on my protopage (http://www.protopage.com/melland). Wikipedia, IMDb, and some norwegians. What about a opportunity to let the users add search engines, perhaps something like on firefox? Those I have on my protopage do I also have on firefox, but when I am on other computers then mine, with IE, it`s very nice to have them all on protopage.

I know you have dictionary.com listed, but in my FF keywords, I use m-w.com far more than dictionary. It seems to me that there is more information there…
February 28th, 2006 at 7:32 pm
I would like a pricewatch, Geek Articles, Digg and EBay seachbox, oh wait I all ready have one www.protopage.com/ssvalenteno
February 28th, 2006 at 8:21 pm
I would like to see About.com listed.
February 28th, 2006 at 11:36 pm
I depend on and would like the all but forgotten Excite.com search engine available at the click of a mouse.

I’m with Greg, I use metacrawler. It’s pwnage :)
March 1st, 2006 at 7:39 am
I added 3 search engines to my search list window:
Metacrawler
Previewseek
Twingine
The code follows:

I like most of the ideas - The IMDB would be my fave for an add.
March 2nd, 2006 at 2:00 am
I use Protopage for a website for work, and I would love to see links for IMDb and Amazon. A friend actually rigged up a link to IMDb, but you guys might be able to do a better one. And please keep Wikipedia. Love this site, by the way!
March 2nd, 2006 at 10:17 am
second, third, or whatever for yubnub.
March 2nd, 2006 at 4:07 pm
How about a box to enter the search string and another to enter the url of the site you want to search? This way I could search for “Open Source” on say, http://www.mainlineinteractive,.com
So you have a search mod that allows you to set search string and where to search for it.
March 2nd, 2006 at 5:22 pm
www.dogpile.com
www.amazon.com
www.WIKIPEDIA.COM
If you can add more features to the calendar, such as entering upcoming appointments or events or meeting (na organizer), it’ll be awesome
Thanks

It used to be Teoma, but now that has merged with Ask, so I guess: http://search.ask.com/

Hello I would Like to use protopage for a project can I?
March 3rd, 2006 at 6:30 am
IMDB.com

Here is the html to do a zip search on mapquest, if anyone finds it useful. I doubt that this is the best way to do it, but it works:

Clusty!
March 6th, 2006 at 8:47 am
I normally use Dogpile as my primary search engine since it uses all the others to create its list.
March 7th, 2006 at 8:33 pm
A reverse telephone number search.

Pretty cool. This will make some people happy. Im pretty happy with the way i have my search bars setup now though.
http://www.protopage.com/homelessbrian
let me know what ya think of my protopage layout.
The only real update im wishing for is better customization on the panels. I would love it if i had the ability to make them invisible etc… Keep up the good work folks!
March 9th, 2006 at 12:07 am
a whois and ip trace would be lovely.
And for searches, I would like to enter one search string and hit one or more search engines then have the results open in multiple tabs.
Yes, tabs. There should be an option to open all new windows in tabs rather than new windows (al la Firefox and IE 7.0).
You know, in your spare time ;o)
Thank you, btw, for the awesome work here; I’ve really grown to like Protopage quite a bit.
Many, many thanks!

March 10th, 2006 at 10:21 am
I join Hayden Yale in asking for local search
March 11th, 2006 at 5:06 am
I second the digg.com nomination. Yes, everyone loves digg.

post scriptum:
i tried to do it using a sticky post and it seems better but i cannot keep the orginal display of the source page
March 13th, 2006 at 2:32 am
737, you should check out http://www.protopage.com/widgetz. He has a variety of useful embeds and links, along with the HTML source to make them happen in your stickies.

Hi! I am trying to add Merriam-Webster in the search engines.
This does not work. Please correct this !!!!
March 14th, 2006 at 2:59 am
so I paste it here again with modification without
March 14th, 2006 at 3:04 am
This blog does not allow to input html codes.

I would love to see a search for Spurl.net. Ideally with the option to search just my spurls or everyone’s spurls. Actually, it might be nice if there were a dedicated Spurl widget that would allow search and/or display a tag cloud or something to allow easy access to all my bookmarks.
March 22nd, 2006 at 6:56 pm
You could include the list of options available for the toolbar search in Firefox.
March 27th, 2006 at 9:23 pm
Metacritic is a great site — please include it in the search engines widget. It’s a benchmark in the gaming industry and I use it regularly before buying any game or seeing any movie.
March 27th, 2006 at 9:24 pm
Oops — the url is www.metacritic.com
April 5th, 2006 at 4:17 pm
I’d love to see inclusion of the LEO dictionary at http://leo.dict.org.

Have you just finished your work? Just give me a short feedback. Jürgen
April 19th, 2007 at 6:42 pm
I want to ask the same a Jürgen before me. Are you finished with your work?

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for about two years ago! I want it… will it work on WordPress 1.5.X? Please let me know!

main listing pages.
Slowly, but surely, every old post in your WordPress blog gets buried under 50 pages of other posts. Slowly, but surely, all of the duplicate content adds up.
