Federated Search Updated for Windows 7 RTM

Sponsor

One of the features that we talked about a few months ago during the Beta and RC of Windows 7 was the new federated search features. It came to our attention that the TLA federated search OSDX file was not compatible with Windows 7 RTM.

So our first announcement is to say that we have fixed that and posted an updated version of the file available here. The original article will also download the newest file.

Second as TheLazyAdmin is also now on Twitter we also built a Federated search provider to search Twitter. While this is a pretty basic Search provider we thought you might like it. After you add it you can search Twitter from you Windows Explorer search bar!

Have Fun, and let us know if you build any other cool Federated Search providers.
