User interface tweaks
Sep/090
During the past few days we’ve been adding a few tweaks on the user interface:
- The previews and options columns in the search results screen will now follow the scroll. As this can be distracting for some people, a new option has been added to disable this behavior.
- Added a “See more” link to the previews panels and tooltips, which will set that search type as the main one.
We hope you like the changes! Feel free to comment about them or drop us a line.
Improvements in existing search plugins
Sep/090
We’re happy to announce that the Digg, Yahoo! Answers and Twitter search plugins now have the ability to show multiple pages of results.
The Twitter search has also been improved to “understand” links, users and tags in the tweets content.
We expect to add a new search type this week!
New features!
Sep/090
During the past few days we’ve been working on several improvements for Nibbo:
- Regular tooltips will not disappear when taking the mouse cursor on them.
- “More information” option for Flickr search results.
- “Preview search” mode for related searches.
- Refinements work again for Wikipedia search.
… and we added a new search engine type: feeds. This type is useful to discover new RSS/Atom feeds related to your searches, which can then be added to any feed reader.
Enjoy!
… and we’re back!!

After the summer holidays, it’s time to go back to work and make Nibbo better!
During the last months I suspected that there was a bug that nullified Nibbo’s start page; as it was uncommon, I was unable to fix it until today, so I’m happy to announce that this problem will not occur again.
I’ll start working on new feature from today, including the themes, new search engine types, and more! Stay tuned.
