sleightly.com now has searching capabilities

July 11, 2008 · Filed Under sitenews 

Ok, back to boring you with the website’s development process.

You can now search sleightly.com to check and see what sort of listings we have. You get 20 listings at a time but can continue to retrieve results. There are still some things on the “To Do List” for the search feature, though. For instance…

  • Search rankings are implemented but need to be more complete.
  • The keywords that are searched for are not highlighted. I want that feature in there.
  • An Overview Search and a Focused Search would be nice as well. For instance, if I type in “Richard Sanders”, I get the top search results organized into different categories (the top listings for “DVDs”, the top listings for “Reviews” etc. all separated), plus the chance to make a focused search only within a specific category.
  • There just isn’t enough data there. A directory is only as good as its contents.

Still, I’m pretty happy that the feature’s there and is currently working. Yee-haw.
