Probably an easy one for you guys...

Hi,

 

I've been messing about with Alfred and I've been able to pull off a couple of humble workflows of my own, but I'm having trouble on this one.  

 

I work in TV and I've been interviewing a lot of people lately.  In doing that, I search for them on:

 

- google

- linkedin

- IMDB

- StaffMeUp

- Vimeo

- Facebook

- Twitter

 

I tried doing that {query} thing while entering the url of the search page on each website, but I just can't seem to get it right.

 

Basically, I want to type in "TV", space, (person's name), then enter, and have all those websites open up at once!

 

 

If someone has a similar workflow, I can just try to use it as a template.  

 

 

Thanks,

Brian

Alfred comes with a workflow like this built into the Examples.

 

Go to Alfred Preferences > Workflows > [+] button at bottom of list > Examples > Should I watch this movie? It will help you understand the basics of 'Default Web Search' and 'Open URL' actions, which will be the only things you should need for a workflow like the one you describe
