If you're like me, you probably have data spread across a number of cloud storage services such as Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, etc. Hopefully you're a lot more organized with your data than I am with mine, because at times I do find myself utilizing the search function of the cloud service.

Many of us use cloudHQ as a way to sync all of our data from various cloud services into one cloud backup account, which also allows easy searching because all of our files are backed up to one centralized service which can be easily searched. 

But maybe you don't use cloudHQ and perhaps all of your data is spread out over many different services. If you want to be able to search all of your files from a large number of cloud services, you may want to check out CloudMagic. CloudMagic allows users to search files stored in Gmail and Google apps, Google Drive, Twitter, Facebook, Dropbox, SkyDrive, Evernote, Box, Microsoft Exchange, Office 365, Hotmail, Outlook.com, MSN, Windows Live, Yahoo, iCloud, GMX, AOL and Mail.com. Multiple accounts of any of these services can be used as well.

Any data stored with CloudMagic is kept on Amazon Web Services (AWS). All concerns about privacy or security of data and information are addressed in the Privacy Policy. 

Simple searches can be performed using a person's name, a company name, a phrase you remember from a tweet, etc. For a more advanced search, you can use Operators.

CloudMagic offers a free plan which allows users 50 views per month. One view is described as clicking on a search result, which gives you an instant preview of your data. If you need more than 50 views, CloudMagic offers a premium plan which is currently only $4.99 per month for unlimited views.

CloudMagic offers apps for Android, iOS, Kindle Fire, Windows Phone and Windows 8. It also offers browser extensions for Chrome, Firefox, Safari and IE. Keep up with CloudMagic on Twitter and Facebook.

CloudMagic offers an excellent service which covers a wide range of services. Sign up for the free plan so you can try it out and upgrade later if necessary.

As mobile use is at an all-time high and expected to top desktop computer use within a year or so, companies such as Google, Samsung and Apple are all competing for their share of this highly competitive market. Recent announcements show that Google, Samsung and Mozilla are working fast to release new versions of web browser engines for mobile use.

Browser engines are used to interpret HTML which determines how the content is displayed on the screen. It sounds simple enough but there are many differing mobile devices- each with its own type of browser. If two browsers use different engines, the content may be displayed differently on each device.

Google announced on Wednesday that it was developing a new web browser engine called Blink. Blink is a variant of the WebKit engine, an open-source engine that currently powers Chromium and Safari. However, as Chromium has become more complex, it has become harder to use, which spurred these changes by Google. Blink will also be used to power Opera's web browser.

Mozilla also announced on Wednesday that it was currently working with Samsung to develop a new web browser engine called Servo. Servo will be used mainly for Android smartphones. This announcement comes at a time when Google is currently attempting to market the Chromium browser to smartphone users.
