- You can use short keywords to select the search engine instead of using the drop-down menu, if you prefer.
- PopSearch remembers your recent search queries and shows you a drop-down list of ones that match what you type in the input box. If you're repeating a recent search, just select an item in the menu and press Enter.
- If you select some text on the current page before pressing the hotkey, that text will be automatically entered into PopSearch.
- You can export (back up) your search engines to Pinboard, and import (restore) them from Pinboard to PopSearch on the same computer or another one.
- PopSearch comes with two visual styles, and you can create your own with a little knowledge of CSS.

"PopSearch even does site-specific searches. To search just the site you're currently viewing, select “Google Here” or “Bing Here”. You can define your own site-specific search engines, too."
--- To macupdate admin(s) I think we need to have the file size for this extension changed from mb to kb. A 38 mb extension would be an app of its own.
