Surf Canyon (http://www.SurfCanyon.com) accelerates the search experience on Google, Yahoo! and Microsoft Live Search by enabling you to find relevant information buried in the search results. Employing advanced search technology, the application determines what you want and then goes as deep as page 100 of the result set to fetch it. The latest version also supports Craigslist, including image previews. This browser software is available as an add-on extension for Firefox 2 and Firefox 3 as well as a plug-in for Internet Explorer (IE6 and IE7). The application learns as you search to filter your results so that you can find the information you need. This tip is a great trick for searching. It is easy and it is free!
Here is what some bloggers have said about the application:
"What is certain is that I’ve been using [Surf Canyon] for two months and it has become totally indispensable." - Christophe Deschamps, Information Management Consultant
" if you need to quickly narrow down on a set of results from an ambiguous heap, [Surf Canyon] shines." - Mike Gunderloy at Web Worker Daily
"Surf Canyon eliminates the need to repeatedly search within results. I no longer have to try to think like an algorithm. As soon as I find one needle in the haystack of results, Surf Canyon pulls out the others." - Marcus S., attorney
"[Surf Canyon] speeds up that whole paging-through-results dance or the far nerdier insert-boolean spasm we all do when trying to find something." - Cyndy Aleo-Carreira at Profy
"Surf Canyon implemented in my Firefox browser is simply fulgurant." (Note: Fulgurant, adj., amazingly impressive; suggestive of the flashing of lightning.) - Alain Joannes at Journalistiques
"This is a must-have plug-in. I tend to use Google for the majority of my searching, and this tool breathed new life into the experience." - Joel Evans, Chief Geek of Geek.com
"Apart from it’s new approach on search personalization, I also like the international mindset of Cramer and his team. Most US-based start-ups just focus on the huge home market, yet Surf Canyon works in 13 different languages." - Ernst-Jan Pfauth, Editor and Chief of The Next Web
