Inquisitor 2.2 – Instant Search for Safari

Inquisitor 2.0

I am pleased to announce the immediate availability of Inquisitor 2.2 – the ultimate instant search extension for Safari. Inquisitor 2.2 combines as-you-type instant search, search term prediction, and multiple-engine searching in a refined interface.

The major change in version 2.2 is that the core search engine for instant results has been changed from Yahoo to Google. This has two positive consequences. Firstly, instant results are now far more relevant and useful. Secondly, instant results are even more ‘instant’, as the Google results can be loaded much more quickly than before. Fast and relevant – it doesn’t get much better than this!

Also, like NewsFire, Inquisitor is a Universal binary, so it will run great on Apple’s Intel Macs.

Great!

Using Google for the instant results fixes the only problem I still had with Inquisitor.

I was satisfied with the preceding version and its speed, but “thank you” for the even speedier return of websites. As ever, a great piece of work on your part.

nice job. didn’t think it could get any better!

Interesting. I’d always wondered why the instant search results didn’t match the Google search.

My only gripe with Inquisitor is that it doesn’t set the find pasteboard after a search, like the ordinary Safari search box does. Safari’s even clever enough to only use the first word of multi-word searches, which is must more likely to appear in a given page than your entire search query.

The instant results only seem to work when set to yahoo on my computer. Google does not display the results. I tried reinstalling but no luck.
