]]> with the mid-June update and delivers a style sheet file specially designed for mobile devices.

It is currently focused on iOS devices like iPhone, iPod and iPad as I don’t have any android or windows mobile devices to test with, but it should do pretty well initially on those devices as well.

]]> speeds up the average page loading time to less than a second(!) according to Google webmaster tools. The improvement is made with a rewrite of the disk caching logic.

Some parts of the page are now rendered completely static with further optimization using HTML, CSS and JavaScript compression.

In the chart above, pay special attention to the last 3 updates. They lead to an all-time low in average page loading time. (Except for the 0-value in april, where the webserver got stuck and failed to deliver the page) The page is now faster with more traffic hitting the side than when it launched at the beginning of the year with virtual no visitor impact.

Just visit tunefinity.com once and your browser bar will suggest searching TuneFinity for Music from there on. You don’t even need to go to the site first anymore.

You can add it to your search providers in the Firefox browser search field as well. It uses the same fast AJAX engine like the original search field on the page uses.

TuneFinity.com Screenshot

This service does not provide any download information itself. It rather uses so called application programming interfaces to the largest download stores like Amazon MP3 Store or iTunes Music Store. Intelligent storing methods and an additional caching algorithm speeds up the return of search results dramatically. Latest AJAX web site technology is used for the fastest user experience from page load to search results.

The goal is to make the search as fast, intuitive and simple as it can be. Best of all, this service is free for everyone to use. There is no hidden fee or charge applied. Some links contain a so-called referrer tag, so that some cents from every purchase return to this site.
