Keyword Merge 1.0 |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A web research utility that helps narrow your results when using search engines. Keyword Merge works similar to a mail merge - it merges fields from a
data file into search terms submitted to a search engine.
|
|
|
Major Features |
| |  |
keyword/field merge: merge a
field, or multiple fields, from each record of a
data file into search terms
(keywords) submitted to a search engine, where each record
of the data file
represents an individual search.
| | |
| | |
URL surfing: designate a field
of a data file as a 'URL Field'. With
this feature, Keyword Merge can be used as a quick way of cycling through URLs
(web pages) that you would like to revisit on a regular basis.
| | |
| | |
hot key: assign a hot key to
merge/search each record of the data file
without having to leave your browser.
| | |
| | |
data manipulation: change merged field data
(keywords) dynamically when the search is
being submitted; convert to lowercase, and/or
remove specific words or phrases.
| | |
| | |
browser launch: Keyword Merge will launch your browser if it is not already open.
This allows you to initiate a search from your desktop.
| | |
| | |
Always On Top: make Keyword
Merge stay visible over other windows on the
desktop.
| | |
| | |
customize: Keyword Merge can be
customized by hiding the menu, resizing
field widths, etc.
| | |
| | |
data file compatibility: Keyword
Merge can load any CSV (Comma Separated Values)
text file.
Typically, the CSV text file will have been
created by an application such as a
spreadsheet or database program.
Keyword Merge will also load plain text
files that contain a single column (field) of data.
| | |
| | |
data file preferences: preferences
for each data file (search terms, field
widths, and current record)
are saved automatically, and are restored
the next time you load the file.
| | |
| | |
OS support: Keyword Merge runs on Windows® 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP
operating systems.

|
|
Possible Uses |
| | |
Use Keyword Merge to narrow your search
engine results while conducting web
research. For example, if your conducting a job
search on the internet,
you can merge a list of company names
with one of your skills. The purpose of
this is to find employment/career web pages on company web
sites that have a job posted requiring your
skills.
| | |
| | |
Keyword Merge can be used as a quick way of cycling through URLs (web pages) that you would like to revisit on a regular basis.
For example, if your conducting a job search, you can create a data file that
contains a list of the employment web pages for each company you are interested
in. Use Keyword Merge to quickly cycle through these 'bookmarked' web
pages every few days to check for new job openings.

| | |
Keyword Merge makes a great CSV (Comma Separated Values)
text file viewer.
