Your reading an article on the net and you encounter a term so foreign that you need to search for it, what do you do? Maybe you encounter a very famous name but you don't know him, what do you do? Maybe you've encounter a word that you're sure it belong to a movie title but you could not remember it, what will you do? Ah, its easy, highlight the term, copy it then paste to the search bar, making sure you've open a new tab so that the original page is still there and you've selected the right search engine to narrow down the search then hit the search button.( Allow me to introduce you to Hyperwords http://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1941 Select any text on any page for one-click access to References, Searches, Conversions, Translations, Email, Blogging & more. All you have to do is highlight a word or phrase and the moment you release the mouse a menu will appear, just hover your mouse to the appropriate menu item and if an info is available then it will popup automatically without even the need for you to click it. Else just click there you have it. Things could never be a lot easier than that.

I have installed it but I think it is not really much of help. I think what I would like to see is a synonym or the meaning itself of the word that I have highlighted and not just options on how to search for it in another page. But great info all in all!

Your welcome. I even added my paying search engine there, imagine they paying me to search what I need.)

That's awesome! Just downloaded the plug in. I don't what I'll use it for, but I'm looking forward to having another neat gadget at my finger tips! Thanks!
