Use Google from the Location Bar

I just found this neat little trick: Use Google from the Location Bar (at the bottom of the page). This makes it so I am able to just type gg linux in the location bar, and mozilla takes me right to the google results page. Another good use is for a dictionary search; dict mozilla gives me the definition of mozilla. See here for even more ideas on how to use this little trick. Try that in IE!

    Actually. You can do it in IE. You just have to go get the Power Toys or somesuch, which is a free download. And, for me, anyway, it was actually more intuitive to set up. Not that I use IE; I was just messing around with config stuff one day and noticed it.

    What is this, mozilla.org? I want to read about your life, you loser!

    Wait… this is your life… oh… sigh…

    Use Firebird. And GNOME. And kill your computer.
