ICS questions
I have a couple of questions on how to do some things in ICS that I did in Gingerbread.
1) How do I do a search (Web, apps, etc.) without using a search widget since we no longer have a search widget?
2) We could do a voice command by holding down the search button before. How can we initiate that now?
3) I constantly held down the home button to see my list of recent apps to switch between a couple of them before, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do that in ICS yet. Anybody know how?
Thanks!

If you click the magnifying glass button on your phone it will open a search box that will search for anything on your phone.
On my phone I can hold the home button and it will pop up a list of recently used apps. There is also a task manager button.
I am using the ics stock launcher, not the Samsung touchwiz launcher.

I'm trying to avoid taking up real estate with the widget. And I'd like a faster way to sort through the recent apps list. Any other suggestions?

See what Bdashcates said, use the recent apps button it's that simple

Re: ICS questions
The recent apps button is slower and requires multiple swipes. Its useless compared to stock Android and older versions. Its easier to just have shortcuts in hone
