LookAhead Firefox Extension

Posted By Michael On 29th January 2005 @ 19:39 In technology &c. | 4 Comments

The LookAhead extension for Firefox is an excellent piece of work. If you use it instead of the straight Google Search in the Search Bar of your browser, it will use Google to find the first n results of your query and open them in tabs, where n is configurable to your liking. It’s like “I’m Feeling Lucky” only built in and configurable.

You can also restrict your search to a given domain, and search selected text with a right-click context menu option. Unlike many browser extenders, Mr. Rintoul keeps his information, and his code, up to date (click the title for a link). Highly recommended.
