Thread: Share those tiny little (or mighty big) programs you could not live without.

IE7 actually does have that feature, if you give it a query it first checks to see if there is a website by that name then it goes into a search. It uses LiveSearch though, and I don't think there is a way to change that.

That's not what I meant at all.

Every browser under the sun has that feature. Including Firefox, who redirect to Google (that's how Firefox, Opera et al make their money - being Google bitches).

There's all kinds of stuff I like to use, but really, given a good scripting language and a bunch of command line tools... you can make your own "awesome indispensible little toys"

Identity X, that Launchy program sounds a lot like quicksilver for mac... which I love using. I'm checking it out now....

Quicksilver is amazing.

Check out the "Mouse Gesture" extension for FireFox. It takes a little bit to figure out, but once you've configured it for your desires, you'll hardly ever use your keyboard again, when in FireFox
