I'm sure you've heard that Google has made and released Google Chrome OS. It's basically Google Chrome, but with computer files. It was made for people who spend most of their computer time on the internet. I personally think it's pointless. It's just like a downgrade to an internet-only computer, when you could just keep your PC, Mac, LFS, etc. Now it's time to discuss.

NOW.

to be fair, that thread doesn't come up when searching for 'chrome'.

That's because the title is just "google os coming soon" not "google chrome os coming soon" Well probably, anyway.

Well, yes, but no-one said "chrome" in that thread.

Why aren't titles searched? That's usually what I'm searching for...

could have an option to search either titles or message content, or even both:

(o) Search Message Content only
( ) Search Title only
( ) Search both Message and Title

I still think you should include titles if you're going to supply a ttf-specific search feature at all.

Shutting up now.
