Lumifi releases Mac Research Widget

Lumifi, a company specializing in research and work collaboration services, says it has developed a new widget for Mac OS X. Sitting in the Dashboard, the Research Widget duplicates some of the functionality of the Lumifi portal, by letting users enter quick search queries. Unlike tools from Google or Yahoo, however, the Lumifi widget is said to prioritize the connections between words, instead of the popularity of a website.

The widget is coded in Flash, and groups results by topic as well as relevance to a user's research. It is a free download, and is compatible with Mac OS X Tiger and Leopard.
