- I would 2nd that motion and be very grateful if it was implemented.
- Good, but I could really do with the ability to word count a selection, or the current paragraph...
- OneNote is definitely a great productivity tool that I use a lot. The integration with CRM is quite clever.
- Ho do I sync all my notes in my notebook to my device. In my onenote, all except work off line is disabled in sync menu. Can you help?
- Cool powertoy. However, the holy grail here has got to be excel embedded into notebook pages like it can be into a word doc. Even better would be some native editing capabilities without opening...

But more importantly, it seems to cast a very wide net and there's no way to tweak its results. It looked like it was doing a web search on EVERY word on the page. A lot of the results seemed irrelevant, especially the image results. (One such result on a medical-themed note page was a picture from Pulp Fiction?) I settle for even switching off image results, but I didn't see how this would work.
So while Xippy might have some usefulness, it's probably more efficient to manually search for just the things you want to find out about than to sort through its long list of results. The Research features in OneNote make this easy enough. Maybe once they add the ability to filter search results or tweak the search parameters, this will be more useful. If they can figure out a way to make the search more discriminating, that would help too, although it seems like a tall order.
Also saw a small performance hit on my machine. ON seemed to hang for a bit when Xippy started searching, but there was no perceivable slowdown after the results started returning. My PC is kind of old so this might not be as noticable on a newer machine.
