Fast Cisco Searches with Firefox and IE!!!
Wow! Just stumbled on this one today. Cisco now allows "quick searches" from Firefox (yey!) and IE 7 (sigh...).
You can use this feature to search the following:
* BugID Lookup Tool
* Command Lookup Tool
* Error Message Decoder Tool
* TAC Service Request Query
* Search Cisco
* Search Cisco Brazil
* Search Cisco Japan
* Search Cisco Latin America
* Search Cisco Russia
(My favorites are bolded) This allows you to do a quick search of any of these tools/websites without navigating to them! Sweeeet! Just navigate to the following link to add them in:

Indeed it's a cool feature, however I usually just add a search to the firefox, so I can use the URL bar:
I go to a search form, do a right click on the bar, and select 'add search'. I add a keyword, and a name, and save it as a bookmark. Later on I just write the keyword, then the words I'd like to find.
E.g. I add 'bug' for the bug toolkit search, then enter 'bug CSCsq77968' in the URL bar. This is a bit faster for me, than choosing the search engine first.
