del banana
January 24, 2006 on 5:04 pm | In Blogger |I don’t know why this is so funny to me, but I must share this story right now. So, like most keyboard fiends, I prefer Quicksearches on Firefox to the Search toolbar (the thing on your upper right corner, usually with the Google G by default). To use Quick Searches, you type, for example, “goog ‹search term›″ in the url toolbar of your Firefox browser window. Some of my Quicksearches are from dictionary.com, thesaurus.com, google image search, and google, of course, but there are others. So I configured a Quicksearch term for del.icio.us on my iBook this winter break, but I forgot that I did not do that for my desktop PC. Thus, when I typed “del banana” meaning “search for banana on del.icio.us,” instead of getting this page, I got the other thing Firefox does when you type a search term in your url terms, and that is, it plugs in the “I’m Feeling Lucky” search box on Google. I got the following page.
