Smart keywords are really smart!

OK, I always thought of myself as a Firefox poweruser. I use the keyboard shortcuts all the time, have my extension highly configured and know how to get at parts of the browser really fast.

But one area of Firefox I never really touched until 10 minutes ago are the Smart Keywords. Oh sure, I type my keyword in the adressbar and it goes straight to Google. But every now and again I would like to search Wikipedia or YouTube. I used the searchbar for those searches but I just found out it can go a lot faster. With Smart Keywords.

You can read here how you can add those smart searches to your own bookmarks. And better yet, you can use them on any searchengine. Even your intranet or your CRM system. Really powerful stuff and worth to look into!



Good suggestion, makes life a lot easier.
