If you install Greasemonkey for Firefox, you can add a script that sets some keyboard shortcuts for Google search. The script works even for the localized versions of Google.
You'll see that each search result has a digit in front of the title. This works only for the first 10 results from a results page, so it might be a good idea to stick to the default number of search results (which is 10).
You can also go to the next page of search results by tying n and go back to the previous page by typing p. To edit the query you have two options: either type e to select the query, so when you type something the query will be replaced, or type a to append something to the query.
A very cool feature is the tab mode: if you type t, the numbers will be highlighted in green and search results will open in new tabs.
That's a great peace of work, would be a must-have to SEO community.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it, it works a treat!!
ReplyDeleteMy only question is can I make this work for google desktop aswell tho?
I am in love with this script. I use a lot of google search, with a particular Keyword. And it is helping me a lot by saving a lot of mouse movement.
ReplyDeleteI am loving it.
That's right..GreaseMonkey is great..using this script, we can adding Technorati tags in our blog easily.
ReplyDeleteIt doesnt't seem to work of image searches, which is annoying. or am i overlooking something?
ReplyDeleteJust what I was looking for!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
it doesnt work any more
ReplyDeleteall Google specific gresemonky scripts may not work anymore as the google pages have changed a lot.
ReplyDeleteYeah!! I love it, it works perfectly.
ReplyDeleteHad to change the colours though, so the numbers are gray and have a white background (I just leave it in tab mode).
Don't work with FireFox 3.5.7
ReplyDeleteGreat! As a user of the VIM text editor I like it very much! Just missing Greasemetal for the Linux version of Google Chrome...
