Ever go looking for a particular Virtual Machine? Did you want a Solaris 9 VM? Or something a little more obscure, like OS/2? Now you have a easy way to find your virtual machine:
Enomaly is proud to announce the launch of VMfind.com, an online community & search network for virtualization technology with a focus on, pre-configured virtual appliances, tech papers, documentation, forums and blogs.
O wait, nope. It is just a Google Coop. Nolthing special there, I was over excited at the idea, of having a search like this, but quickly disappointed. (Here is how I would do it, this is a mockup, not an actual feature yet, but would be pretty easy to implement):

There are a large variety of sources for your Virtual Machines. Currently VMware is the most trusted, especially for VM compatible images. I’m sure VMFind.com will refine there site, and make it a very usable and simple search tool. Until then, I think I may just stick with some carefully crafted google strings.

Thank you for mentioning us. Your search mockup is right on target and we plan on doing this with our upcoming VMcasting, see http://www.vmcasting.org technology.
