I’ve been digging through my digital archives for things, and I am struck by how outdated Spotlight is on Mac OS X.
By now, we’re all used to Googling things, which means typing something approximate into Google and having it read your mind and come back with what you meant, without you having to say it properly.
Spotlight, on the other hand is old skool computery. The results are not ranked. There is no separation between close hits and distant hits. Typos lead to null results (Google corrects them for you). There is no preview of context. You cannot interactively view the context from the search results UI.
When will Spotlight get a refresh?
