Welcome to OpenSearch for Second Life

A special welcome to realXtend viewer users, who are now accessing OpenSearch natively.
Happy searches!

This page can be accessed from within Second Life, even with the official Linden Lab viewer. If you want three search engines inworld seamlessly integrated with your viewer, OpenSearch is it!

Integration with the Linden Lab viewer can be done either manually or automatically by running a JavaScript program that makes all configurations for you. Follow the options below to set up OpenSearch in your viewer.

Open Search allows you to access multiple search engines in Second Life from the same simple interface. Currently the following search engines are supported:

• Metaverse Ink Search supports search for products, designers, notecards, places and land for sale. It lists about 2 million products with images, descriptions, and a link directly to the store. There is also support for scripted vendors. This search engine uses a staff of 14 friendly robots to scan the entire grid twice a week, and has a sophisticated ranking system that is very difficult to fool.
• Linden Lab Search "All" search provides access to a static view of information from the SL grid. Highlights include search of places, classifieds, profiles, and the SL wiki.
• Google Search ... for the ordinary universe.
