So how many times have you thought to yourself: “dang…what was the name of that hotel in San Francisco someone recommended to me for Social Media Week last year? I can’t remember who it was, or how they sent me the hotel details….

And then you waste half an hour scrolling through hundreds of messages in your different emails accounts, trying to go back to last year tweets (but hey, they’re gone!), browsing your LinkedIn and Facebook accounts…. just to find a damn message or trace from that guy…

… if you haven’t already deleted his message!

This is where Silentale’s Search functionality can really save you time and aggravation: it allows you to search ALL your conversations at once!

Simply enter a name or keywords (for instance, “Hotel San Francisco”) in the “Search everything” bar on the upper right-hand corner of the screen, or in the box on the Search tab, and you’ll get a list of all the messages and contacts with those terms.

Another way to make your searches even faster is to add the Silentale Search plugin to your browser (works with Firefox 2+ and Internet Explorer 7+).  Then you can find what you need straight from your search bar, without even having to go to your Silentale account.

Just one click lets you change from your normal search engine to doing a search of all your messages and contacts. Happy hunting!
