So you can actually set it up as a quick search rather than an actual search. The quick key is probably the most under use but most useful tool there is on Firefox. If I go to Wikipedia.com I can do the same thing. I can right click add a keyword for this search. I can type Wikipedia, W for Wikipedia keyword Wikipedia in then when I type Wikipedia World War 2 I get the page on World War 2.
Ultra-Useful, I also uses for a site urbandictionary.com in you can even add your custom, your own custom quick keys. For example when I search define apple it defines what the word apple means I do not know.
Bellicose, so I do not know some kind of it gives you a web definition really quickly using Google. So, I can actually take this query I can just copy the URL, control-C to copy and I click control-B to open bookmarks and I will make a new bookmark. I right click anywhere, click new bookmark and I will call this define word. And also the location is these I said define bellicose but I am actually going to replace the word I search with percent S you can see that, it says define bellicose, define bellicose I am going to replace bellicose with percent S or whatever word you search and I am going to say the keyword is v for define so, I click okay.
Now I am on a random page like I am at my address bar or something and I say define keys it will automatically go to the page for the Google page for define keys so I can add all kinds of useful quick keys based on the URL or I can just right click in add a keyword for this search.
So, Firefox quick keys probably the most under rated unknown useful trick there is. A lot of people recommend the video downloader extension because they downloaded u-tube video in stuff like that a lot.
It is actually very easy to download anything in Firefox without the use of extension. Let us go to newgrounds.com it is a great flash site. You can actually download stuff just by right clicking with they watch movie in they just right click in I go to view page info and if I go to the media it will show me all the elements on that page including the flash element.
So, I can actually just say the rest of your files FLV or anything just by going to the media tab and page info and clicking save us in that is it I save it to desktop. It is super easy you do not really need the video downloader extension or anything like that. You can just use the media tab after right clicking going to page info.
And finally how to make Firefox faster, there is several hidden configuration options I can access by going to about CONFIG in my address bar. I like to enable something called pipelining with this will essentially do is normally TCPIP package are downloaded one by one or pipelining allows you to do is increase your request at much higher. For example, I can say that it is a 32 so it can try and download 32 packets at once so I am just going to say it was 16 or a little lower. But this will greatly increase the speed on site like u-tube in other sites that have like a bunch of thumbnails or something.
It is like myspace in maybe 500K with a bunch of email and other type of external content. Another one is called Max connections I believe, Max connections for server, yes it is already set to eight never mind but in some Firefox it has set only two or something and that will only let you download two files at a time for example.
