hm i wasnt clear i guess

Smart Keywords
The scenerio: you use Google, Internet Movie Database, or even your corporate phone book to find things. Wouldn't it be handy if you could just open your browser and use a short cut to search? Try this:

* Go to the page that has the search box on it, right click in the search box and choose "Add a Keyword for this Search..."
* In the "Add Bookmark" dialog that appears enter a name and a short "keyword" and save the Bookmark...
So, for Merriam-Webseter Online (www.m-w.com) you'd right click in the search box, enter a keyword you'll remember like mw and save the bookmark.
Now you can type "mw frogs" in the URL field of your browser and you'll be taken to the Merriam-Webster site to see the results of your search. You won't want to live with out it!
Note: This works with Google Desktop Search too! I have a shortcut called GDS that I use for a quick search of my desktop.
* Screenshots to help explain this here.
