The “Services” directory needs to be created the first time you install a third-party service (which was the case on my new MacBook Pro). Also, if you install in /Library, instead of ~/Library, it will be available to all users.

Great utility, Russell.

Also, as someone posted over at MacAch, you could easily create a whole line of these services. There’s already a dictionary search and a Google search installed be default, but how about MSN, Wiktionary, Google subpages (images, news, etc.) the possibilities are endless and you already have the basic framework done.

Again, thanks for whipping this up. It’s one of the few such mini-utilities I’ve found that I will probably actually use.
