While spending the day bug stomping in the new SubHonker Filter, I found a little time to implement search for BrainLog.
Note that search is limited to one phrase; it's not indexed keyword search or anything. My cheesy attempt at fancy pull-quotes in the search results doesn't work quite right, but it's good enough. Search results are returned in reverse chronological order (most recent first).
It searches complete texts, including the contents of HTML tags, so you can search for URLs. Text that appears only within HTML tags will return search results without pull-quotes. So searching for Amazon.com isn't totally pointless, but almost.
Check out every entry in which I said "DVD".
As always, please let me know if there are any problems.
A useful feature for the SHF (for me anyway) would be a screen that displays all the weblogs set to "view" in a comma delimited list.
ie:
BrainLog, Backup Brain, Dandot.com
(yeah i think the spaces are relevant)
I could copy that list and paste it into weblogs.com's favourites box in the prefs page http://www.weblogs.com/prefs to keep my favourites synchronized between the two systems.
If you could go one step further and display the results in a frameset, the comma-separated list on the top and the weblogs.com prefs page on the bottom, that'd be nirvana. :)
