Find your files faster and easier, create and combine saved searches, and get an in-depth look into the advanced information Mac OS X Tiger stores about your files with Meta.

Here are a few of the things that Meta does to help you be productive:

• Searches are done using an extended version of the Spotlight query language that includes boolean operators, location-based searching, and more.
• Facilitates Spotlight tagging by allowing you to edit and append Spotlight comments for multiple files in one shot.
• Shows you all the metadata information stored about your files by Mac OS X Tiger.
• Lets you open multiple search windows for multiple concurrent searches.

Here are some key features of "Big Robot Meta":
Multiple search windows
Powerful and simple query language
Metafolders: like Smart Folders, only smarter
Spotlight tagging / Spotlight comment editing
Restrict searches to any directory
Access all of your metadata from one application.

With all this and more, Meta puts the full power and flexibility of Spotlight at your fingertips.

Limitations:
15 day trial period.

What's New:
For Meta 2 we did a complete rewrite of the underlying search system and redesigned the search window. The result is a version of Meta that is faster and easier to use than ever before.
