Here's a neat, little trick that may either save you some time, or help you kill some time, depending on what you're up to.
BTW, you should be using FireFox to fully follow this method.
This trick will allow you to open Google results page and Overture keyword tool side by side with one quick shortcut. Excellent when you want to quickly go through several niches and get an overview of them. Your results screen will look like this:
Ok, here's how.
1. In the background, we will use the extremely useful yubnub service - the command line for the web. Go and explore it for yourself - it's a great tool that will save you time on many other occasions, especially when searching.
2. We need to configure FireFox in such a way that when it cannot recognize the URL in the address bar, it forwards the entire command to yubnub.
3. In order to do that, enter "about:config" in the address bar. A new configuration page will open.
4. Do a search for "keyword.URL" and change its value to "http://yubnub.org/parser/parse?command=". Thanks Brian for the tip.
5. Now, in the address bar of FireFox, enter "gok your_keyword", for example "gok forex". It will open a split screen, with Overture results in the left frame and Google results in the right frame. "Gok" is one the endless commands available at yubnub.
6. BTW, you can create your own commands at yubnub - this is really powerful!
