My Firefox Search Keywords

by Marcus on March 2, 2009

The Search Keywords feature in Firefox makes it possible to use search engines by starting a search string with a certain letter, in the address bar. For example “i die hard” searches for “die hard” on IMDb, in my browser. Search Keywords are organized as bookmarks, and can be added by right-clicking a search field, and pressing “Add a Keyword for this Search”. I use this feature for all searches, and I’m bored, so here’s my list of Search Keywords.

You install it like this:

  1. Right-click on my Search Keywords bookmarks file and choose “Save Link As…” Place the file somewhere on your computer.
  2. In Firefox, from the Bookmarks menu, choose “Manage Bookmarks”.
  3. From the Bookmarks Manager File menu, choose Import. Choose “Import Bookmarks from File.” Browse to and open the file you just saved.

You can see an explanation of all the keywords by left-clicking the link.
