In the window that pops up, in the keyword field enter e.g. "dw" (without the quotes). - From now on, you can just type dw <search_words> into the regular URL bar and it will automatically search at danwalsh.livejournal.com I've been using this feature for Bugzilla and Trac tickets for years. It's fantastic. If you want to have it specifically search using Google, you can do this by setting up a custom Google search bar and saving THAT as the keyword, or just go into your bookmarks and edit the Location field of the keyword bookmark you just saved. The one I described above specifically uses Livejournal's own search facility, but you can look at it for an example of how to structure the search you want to do. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.13 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlEc/7cACgkQeiVVYja6o6PErACfa6ROwpacRmBhY9QKF62XM/3x Lf4An1hUJKiZ7qnnMIgiyv9qiPK41XJo =L6s9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
