Description:
This extension enables you to query any web-based search service
with a few clicks (Google, Wikipedia, Youtube, your favorite web dictionary,
your company's Intranet search facility – you name it!). Right-click
a word or a selection on any web page to open
the context menu, select a search service in the Search Anywhere
submenu and your set. The word or selection is looked up by the search service
you selected. Search Anywhere comes with some preinstalled search services,
but the real power of the extension is the possibility to add your own
search services – any web-based search service can be accessed. Have a
look at the online tutorial to learn more.
Description:
An extension for fast access to the text corpora compiled and provided by the
Bank of Swedish
(Department of Swedish, Göteborg University).

sent to the web-based corpus query service of the Bank of Swedish and the
results are shown in the browser. (Note: All credits
for the Bank of Swedish go to Göteborg University that maintains the service.)

The Swedish Academy
and Göteborg University.)
