Extension summary

Think about how much of the time you spend browsing is spent in Google Search. Wouldn't it be great if you could suddenly search faster and more efficiently?

The mouse is certainly a powerful input device. However, aiming and clicking is not particularly fast, and is certainly slower than simply using hotkeys. Though you probably use hotkeys in many applications already, you can't really search Google using hotkeys only. Or can you?

Search Accelerator is an extension specially oriented for advanced users, those who preffer hotkeys for maximum efficiency. It adds hotkeys to the standard Google Search page, so that you can, for instance, press ALT+2 to immediately open the second search result. This allows for a more efficient searching experience.

Say goodbye to the slow mouse, embrace the productivity and efficiency of keyboard hotkeys when you search, and surprise your friends and co-workers with your speed!

User reviews

Very useful, works as advertised. There should be some extra configuration options, but it's great nonetheless.
