Google and Firefox help on searching for word definitions

Along with mozilla, Google has come up with a great shortcut for quickly getting the definition of a word or search term. If you type define:something google will find definitions on web pages and display the first one with a link to more.

Mozilla’s search feature works similarly but it usues dictionary.com’s search engine. If you type dict something onto the location bar of Firefox it will auto redirect the search to them.

For more useful Google search tools visit Google Labs or the Mozilla Dict extension home page.
