Topic Wiki

Saw a thread once about MS from the US Mint, Fishy selling his fish tank, or having United call YOU, but can't remember where it was? This is the place to ask!

For mobile searches, SuperFlyer has the following as a favorite: http://www.zodaq.com/ddf/ It looks solely in the forum.

Use advanced search here.

Google works great too! Type: "search site:forums.dansdeals.com" then your seach query after it, then click search.

Would like to buy a new cell phone. Must be unlocked to use in the USA and in Europe. Not Apple.
Where do I start looking (for advise on which phone to buy and best price)?

Its around here somewhere. It was posted twice that I recall. I've searched through hundreds of pages already. (Obviously searching for a photo is much harder.)

If only I could remember a comment that someone posted in response to. At least I'd have something to enter in the search.

BTW, for anyone who uses DuckDuckGo.com for searching purposes, if you append !ddf to your search, it will search for it within DDF.

OCR is when you can search for text inside a photo (eg: a cartoon, or a picture of a sign someone hung up in BMG, or anything really).

Cool. And that would work even if the photo has no link attached, correct ?

Yes.

Do you use Evernote? Evernote does OCR.

No. Is there a way to connect that to somehow work on DDF ?

Not automatically, that I know of, but if you "clip" (ie: save) each page of DDF to Evernote, you'll be able to search for words in pictures, and then you could use the URL of the page to find where it's from.
