New Features - Improved Searching and iCal Organizers

Submitted Feb 29 by Toby Sterrett

Just pushed out a couple really cool features.

First up - Improved Searching.

You can now search in the iPhone version. Need to look up someone's info really quickly but don't know their last name or don't want to go through a few pages of contacts? Just search!

iPhone search

Simply click on the search icon and a search form will appear. Just type in what you're looking for and click the go button. If your search results in one contact match, you'll be taken directly to that person's page, otherwise you'll be shown a list of results.

Now, if you use Firefox, you know it's a great browser. You might even know there are other search engines available in the search field where Google usually sits. And, if you've really dug into Firefox, you'll also know that you can add other search engines to that list. I've got good news - you can now add your Stafftool account to that list of available search engines for easy access to your information at any time.

Adding Stafftool is easy...just go to your account in Firefox and you'll notice that the drop down menu will have a bit of a glow to it:

Click on that glowing menu icon, and you'll see this:

add stafftool

Click the Add "Stafftool" menu option and you'll be greeted with the Stafftool specific search box!

Now, as long as you're logged into your account, you can enter anything you're looking for, such as someone's first name, or the name of an upcoming event. Type it in, hit enter and you'll be taken to your Stafftool account with either a listing of results or the person you're looking for.

Next up - iCal Organizers

The ability to add organizers to events was recently added. However, it didn't carry over to the public iCal feed that is available to subscribe to. So, that's been added. Now, when you view an event that has an organizer (iCal only allows one organizer per event to the best of my knowledge) they'll show up and you can email them.

Much easier to see who to contact with any questions.

Enjoy!
