Safari Sogudi

For a really neat addition to Safari, have a look at Sogudi. It allows typable shortcuts for various sites and especially searches.

Example: defining the following shortcut as "heb"

http://online.babylon.com/cgi-bin/trans.cgi?layout=site.txt&lang=heb&word=@@@

and typing "heb feckless" in the URL bar will look up a Hebrew translation for the word
"feckless".

You can make similar shortcuts, where @@@ will be substituted by the 2nd and further words you type in. A Wiki-collection of shortcuts can be found here.
