Custom Search Engine: A Personalized Search Tool
Custom Search Engine is a Chrome extension that allows users to define and use their own search engines and search categories from the browser's address bar. Users can search using single or multiple search engines or categories. This extension also supports multi-search, enabling users to use multiple search engines with a single query. It allows easy sharing of custom defined engines and saves search engine details for future use.
