Booxter & intell. folders
in addition to allow Spotlight searches in my book library now, Booxter provides "intelligent searches" (e. g. "only novels and only the ones that are one-year old") which by a simple drag and drop can become "intelligent search folders" in the Finder, that contains the related books (with icons)... I was waiting for efficiency with Spotlight, I also get simplicity :-)
