DEVONagent Grows Up

After seven months of public beta testing we have released DEVONagent 3.0 today. And because it’s the best (re)search assistant we’ve ever made we now call it DEVONagent Pro :-) We made it compatible to OS X 10.7 Lion, of course, support 64 bit mode, and have updated or rewritten all plugins. If you’re a JSTOR fan, SEC website user, or lawyer researching on LexisNexis: DEVONagent Pro supports them all now, too. (mehr)

The Last Beta of DEVONagent 3.0 Out in the Wild

Today we have released the last public beta of DEVONagent 3.0 to the wild.  We have added our new support assistant with one-click installs for plugins and scripts, a stand-alone menu extra similar to DEVONagent Express, and dozens of more new improvements and bug fixes. We also have updated DEVONthink and DEVONnote to version 2.1.1 with bug fixes e.g. for the Sorter. Definitely a recommended update for all of you using DEVONthink or DEVONnote!

First Update for DEVONagent Express

Just  a quick note that we have today submitted DEVONagent Express 3.0.1 to Apple with a number of bug fixes. Included are fixes for glitches in the user interface as well as for a bug that lets the app consume way to much CPU time when being used for a longer time.

Assistant, Workspaces, Sorter, and More

As promised two days ago: We have more news this week. Today is the end of the DEVONacademy as we knew it. We have updated all tutorials, collected new scripts, templates, and plugins, moved all tips from my blog to a database, and integrated everything into an easy-to-use assistant that is now part of DEVONthink and DEVONnote, and soon also of DEVONagent.

DEVONagent … Express!

While we’re still waiting for XMenu 1.9.3 to get approved, a brand new product of ours has just become available for unsanely cheap US $ 4.99 on the Mac App Store: DEVONagent Express.

It’s fast, easy-to-use (this time we mean it, really!), and definitely the most Mac-like way to search on the web. Don’t miss it; you could regret it. (mehr)

Run a Quick Search from Any App

DEVONagent 3 introduced a menu added to the right-hand side of the menu bar. Using this menu extra you can run quick searches directly from within any other app on your Mac and view the results right there in the menu, just like when using Spotlight. (mehr)

Spider to Collect Sources

In his blog William J. Turkel writes about using ‘bots’ or ‘spiders’ to do the heavy-duty task of web searching for you:

Once you start collecting large numbers of digital sources by searching for them or using an information trapping strategy, you will find that you are often in the position of wanting to download a lot of files from a given site. Obviously you can click on the links one at a time to make local copies, but that loses one of the main advantages of working with computers–letting them do your work for you. […] In addition to writing my own spiders, I’ve used a number of these packages. Here I will describe DevonAgent. (mehr)

Use the See-Also Sidebar

When browsing the web with DEVONagent try the See Also button (looks like the stovepipe hats that magicians use to conjure rabbits) on the right-hand side of the browser window’s toolbar. It opens a sidebar that shows related documents from DEVONagent’s own archive from open DEVONthink Pro (Office) databases, and from the web. (mehr)
