Review of IconDrive iWebGPS by Online Productivity Expert, Randy Dean

Save a TON of Time on Comparative Web Searching and Shopping
with this Unique New Browser Tool

By Randall Dean http://www.randalldean.com and http://www.emailsanityexpert.com

The new metasearch browser, called the IconDrive IWebGPS, is a totally unique web browser - different in look and usability than anything I've ever used for web searches and web shopping. Designed specifically for the Firefox web browser platform (which is quickly becoming my favorite web browser both from a security and functionality perspective), the IconDrive metasearch browser might be able to save you a TON of time if you are doing comparative search and/or shopping activities on the web.

I have actually been personally working with the browser developer to help make this very cool tool even more functional and user-friendly. I think you will find the capabilities of this browser potentially very useful and productive.

With a visual interface that approximates the dashboard of your car, this browser allows you to type in a keyword ONE TIME in the keyword entry field (bottom right-middle of the screen), and then simply click on an icon of your favorite search engines and/or shopping sites to search multiple sites at the same time! (Thus, the name IconDrive.) The icons for these sites reside in the IWebGPS unit in the bottom right corner of the screen (designed to look like an onboard GPS unit in your car).

When you click on the desired site icons after entering your keyword, new web pages will open up with your search results from each of your desired sites. And, you can quickly toggle between popular search, shopping, travel, and other sites, searching for your keywords/phrases on each of those sites simultaneously and speedily, and with only entering the keyword a single time. (This definitely has a "Very Cool" factor to it!)

The browser even features a rearview mirror that allows you to easily reference recently used keywords and recently visited sites (it posts the site icons in the rearview for easy ongoing reference). I recommend doing some comparative searching activities and possibly some comparative shopping activities on the site to fully understand the functionality and benefits of this tool.

As I said, it is optimized for Firefox, and thus you lose some of the functionality on Internet Explorer. But, you can also create a user account and download your own version of the browser to create and customize your own user interface with the browser. Because of the unique look and feel of the browser, I recommended to the browser's creator that he consider some online tutorials for new users. He has actually created a series of slick Flash videos to show the capabilities of this browser. Click here to see these videos.

If you feel that this metasearch tool might be able to help your company or team perform comparative search and online purchasing activities better, smarter, and faster, thus enhancing your team's performance and profitability, we have even discussed possibly holding introductory training sessions on this browser for individual organizations. After getting a chance to try out this browser, send me a note if you might have an interest in sharing this valuable time-saving tool with your workplace, team or group.
