Firefox shortcut - the best thing since bookmark

One thing about opensource software is that tons of features are added but never mentioned. In commercial software, every feature gets hyped as the best thing since [fill in the blank].

Here’s one nice little feature I just discovered on Firefox.

  1. Go to Bookmarks and right on any bookmark.
  2. Select Properties.
  3. Under Keyword: enter a short keyword. For example for www.simplebusiness.org, I entered sb.
  4. Click OK to save it.
  5. On the address bar (or URL bar - the thingy that you key in the web address) enter the keyword.
  6. Hit Enter.

Cool! Most of my favourite sites are now keyworded.
