SL Browser is an inworld ad network created by Felix Wakmann and Diva Canto. So what makes this HUD gadget special enough to demand attention, you ask? Well, it indexes some 1.4 million products and averages 2000 searches per day.
But this isn't about numbers ... I'm excited about several features that surpass the searching capabilities available in the SL client. For one - you can search based on keywords and in your results you get the location
and relevant object/keyword image (instead of the picture of a storefront). This helps narrow your search at-a-glance, without wasting time teleporting to a tens of sites to find something close to what you have in mind. It even sports an "impulse buying" option through the "Public" search feature. If you have that box checked, your HUD will react to searches other people make using the browser. If you like what you're hearing, go get your own
here.
If you're a business owner and wish to update your object description, simply change the object description and the Browser will automatically update in a week's time. Felix is also working on creating tags for those who wish to have their objects stay un-indexed by his gadget. For the techies reading this, continue on to hear about how the browser works, pitfalls, etc.
