Google is famous for making web searches quick and simple. Here's a plug-in for Safari* that makes it even easier and faster. Once installed, the Google search bar in the Safari window will change to say Inquisitor.



As you begin to type, Inquisitor (using Google) searches the internet and displays the results in a drop down window, updating with each letter you type. Once you see the result you're looking for, you can click on it and go straight to the website instead of first having to see the Google results page. It's just like spotlight for the web. You can see here I only had to type "buckhe" to get the results I was looking for.



To get Inquisitor, send an email to computer.help@northpoint.org!

*Note, this will not work with Firefox. Only Safari.
