My review of HoudahSpot as seen on MacZOT.com


I’ve never been really happy with Spotlight. Sure it’s a very robust search tool, but the interface just wasn’t all that impressive to me. So when I saw HoudahSpot, I gave it a try. This is totally what Spotlight has been missing! I really like the interface for defining your search criteria. It’s very intuitive AND powerful. Then once you conduct a search, the result panes are great. There’s a browser, which lets you see all the other files in that folder, an Inspector, which gives you a TON of details about the file (for example: images will show you the dimensions, resolution, type, if its RGB, etc) as well as a Preview pane, which obviously, shows you a preview of the file(s) you’re looking at! This is really just the tip of the iceberg too. Check it out!!!

NOTE: If you’re seeing this on June 16, 2006 head over to MacZOT, you might be able to get a Free copy of HoudahSpot
