Advanced Dork Firefox Extension: Get quick access to Google's Search Operators from Firefox Context Menu

advanceddork.png It's one thing to know there are some great advanced operators to focus Google searches, but it's quite another thing to actually be able to remember them!

Enter the Advanced Dork Firefox extension, which puts quick access to Google's Advanced Operators directly from the context menu in Firefox. Here are some of this extension's features:

* Highlight any text, right click, and choose from over 15 Advanced Google Operators. This function can be disabled in the options menu.

* Right click anyware on the page with no text selected to be provided with the active pages HTML title for use with Google's intitle Operator, and the active pages HTML ALT tags for use with Google's allintext Operator. This function can be disabled in the options menu.

* Right click on a link and choose from site: links domain, link: this link, and cache: this link. Site: links domain will only search the domain name, not the full url.

* Right click the URL Bar (aka Address Bar) and choose from site, inurl, link, and cache. Inurl works with the highlighted portion of text only. Site will only search the domain name, not the full url.

Advanced Dork is available for Firefox version 1.0 - the 3.0 alphas and has earned a place in my add-on list!
