But if you want to convert your Firefox awesome bar into a command line follow these steps.<br /><br />Here are some of the things you would be able to do from the awesome bar. <a class="aABar" href="http://fefoo.com/#SearchDefault?q=%3Btran+fefoo+stvarno+radi+i+njegova+nevjerojatna" target="_blank"><div class="addressbar"><strong>;tran</strong><span class="dim">slate</span> fefoo stvarno radi i njegova nevjerojatna <div class="abright"></div><div class="ableft"></div></div></a> Translate text from any language to english. You don't need to type the complete command. Only the part given in bold is required the rest is optional. Commands begin with a <strong>":"</strong> (colon) or <strong>";"</strong> (semi-colon). <a class="aABar" href="http://fefoo.com/#SearchDefault?q=%3Btran+http%3A//www.deutschland-tourismus.de/" target="_blank"><div class="addressbar"><strong>;tran</strong><span class="dim">slate</span> http://www.deutschland-tourismus.de/ <div class="abright"></div><div class="ableft"></div></div></a> You can directly translate a complete page from any language to English by adding <strong>:tran</strong> in front of the url.<br /><br />To get a complete list of available commands use the <strong>:ls</strong> command.<a class="aABar" href="http://fefoo.com/#SearchDefault?q=%3Als" target="_blank"><div class="addressbar"><strong>;ls</strong><div class="abright"></div><div class="ableft"></div></div></a> This will display all the possible commands you can use. If you don't use a command Google search is performed. <br /><br />The <strong>:fe</strong> command takes you to the fefoo homepage and you can use the commands there. Sometimes its easier to navigate for a category or search engines from the homepage. <a class="aABar" href="http://fefoo.com/#SearchDefault?q=%3Afe" target="_blank"><div class="addressbar"><strong>;fe</strong><span class="dim">foo</span><div class="abright"></div><div class="ableft"></div></div></a><br />You can search using any of the 200+ search engines using commands. <a class="aABar" href="http://fefoo.com/#SearchDefault?q=%3Abi+fefoo" target="_blank"><div class="addressbar"><strong>:bi</strong><span class="dim">ng</span> fefoo<div class="abright"></div><div class="ableft"></div></div></a> When you use the <strong>:</strong> (colon) instead of <strong>;</strong> (semi-colon) the toolbar appears on top which makes it really easy to change the search engine or category. You can open results from other search engines by middle clicking on the icons on the toolbar. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9rNfVxzMbtjfPWDSI_0VgTGkReyr51ZGu_dXSu3t0Fd4z9fHOd4xohNfTIpvsi8q8Vxz2EApwRnf_ax5m9HEvCQc7Dxs6YaXzM7yoTYDscU7ug0OOul60qkQk8vXYeDPI2pTRp-oQNEw/s1600-h/bingfefoo.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 46px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9rNfVxzMbtjfPWDSI_0VgTGkReyr51ZGu_dXSu3t0Fd4z9fHOd4xohNfTIpvsi8q8Vxz2EApwRnf_ax5m9HEvCQc7Dxs6YaXzM7yoTYDscU7ug0OOul60qkQk8vXYeDPI2pTRp-oQNEw/s400/bingfefoo.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354571875061379650" /></a> Some of the more frequently user search engines that I use are <strong>:tw</strong><span class="dim">itter</span>, <strong>:fl</strong><span class="dim">ickr</span>, <strong>:imdb</strong>, <strong>:rec</strong><span class="dim">ipe</span>, <strong>mo</strong><span class="dim">vies</span>, <strong>mu</strong><span class="dim">sic</span>, <strong>fr</strong><span class="dim">iendfeed</span>. <a class="aABar" href="http://fefoo.com/#SearchDefault?q=%3Atw+fefoo" target="_blank"><div class="addressbar"><strong>:tw</strong><span class="dim">itter</span> fefoo<div class="abright"></div><div class="ableft"></div></div></a> This will search for "fefoo" on twitter.<br /><br />You can even post messages to twitter using the command <strong>:ez</strong><span class="dim">tweet</span>. <a class="aABar" href="http://fefoo.com/#SearchDefault?q=%3Aez+I+am+tweeting+from+fefoo" target="_blank"><div class="addressbar"><strong>:ez</strong><span class="dim">tweet</span> I am tweeting from fefoo<div class="abright"></div><div class="ableft"></div></div></a> <br />These are just some of the example commands. There are more than 250+ commands that can help you achieve a lot more. You don't have to remember all of them. In most cases you won't use more than 10-15 commands. You can also use all these commands from the search bar by adding fefoo as a search provider. To do that visit <a href="http://fefoo.com" target="_blank">http://fefoo.com</a> and click on the <strong>add to firefox</strong> button on the top right side of the page. It works like Google search till you don't use commands, in most cases its not that difficult to change over to <a href="http://fefoo.com">fefoo</a> as a search provider.<br /><br />To add <strong>fefoo</strong> to the awesomebar follow these steps.<br /><br />1) Type <strong>about:config</strong> in the your address bar and open the config page. You might get a warning click on "I'll be careful". <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5zqHCkvO6fNlWsXZ6GwRigvW2W66Xvp3leEgkUCdGpM6j4qGrd6bbH__p-RhZyHPWR6K6wRb9RLAyLM6OYIUK1zZ6TzBMaL9J75RQkIBVHw01nPEi8D1PRamRdzDZAhl8azNdd1Eb52Y/s1600-h/warrantyVoid.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 210px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5zqHCkvO6fNlWsXZ6GwRigvW2W66Xvp3leEgkUCdGpM6j4qGrd6bbH__p-RhZyHPWR6K6wRb9RLAyLM6OYIUK1zZ6TzBMaL9J75RQkIBVHw01nPEi8D1PRamRdzDZAhl8azNdd1Eb52Y/s400/warrantyVoid.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354575952365216514" /></a><br />2) Filter the results by typing <strong>keyword</strong>, and double click on the item <strong>keyword.URL</strong> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqSsFQ7ojerzCVCnaMx6X-JB7k1agXFCXX1MZWneBeNR9nPRxSggyEaa2YOrpJi3tI75CS-8m-ZAAL9ZlwAqfsG-0srei_JVCWX3t5wRW6dal50o0y9R858kbZYFsU8Ib4GCpZIQQTo2g/s1600-h/awesomebarkeyword.Default.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 158px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqSsFQ7ojerzCVCnaMx6X-JB7k1agXFCXX1MZWneBeNR9nPRxSggyEaa2YOrpJi3tI75CS-8m-ZAAL9ZlwAqfsG-0srei_JVCWX3t5wRW6dal50o0y9R858kbZYFsU8Ib4GCpZIQQTo2g/s400/awesomebarkeyword.Default.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354576895642185890" /></a><br />3) Change the <strong>keyword.URL</strong> to <strong>http://fefoo.com/#SearchDefault?q=</strong><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh13h034b7x2pgypaRcH_hx72VHXxFBM_kC44kpvub2h4g9GsFtabG0xyceKsmuw_P_d4unXUM5U3aLCz-j2bBbx9LluX4BjBIR2ozX19vw6oQO0NQSyir3uz_Djgl_mvsGkSSeTLyC1WI/s1600-h/awesomebarkeyword.URl.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 221px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh13h034b7x2pgypaRcH_hx72VHXxFBM_kC44kpvub2h4g9GsFtabG0xyceKsmuw_P_d4unXUM5U3aLCz-j2bBbx9LluX4BjBIR2ozX19vw6oQO0NQSyir3uz_Djgl_mvsGkSSeTLyC1WI/s400/awesomebarkeyword.URl.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354576523672180930" /></a><br />4) That's all you are ready to search.

Enter the name of the artist or song you want and click the search button.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://fefoo.com/#Search/Music/GrooveShark/?q=I+Gotta+Feeling+Black+Eyed+Peas"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 36px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEju2e0-Lk26q0iZ26nTQRUcxwdld8VGyHI1dUbKKARX4f2xzsfhqpPb0rFORXEERi6L9enwiNSi8oFMyEdQO7d51Mbio26p1cDvrwfsokayrgcV3kjC-MnuaIz-IT3P5XteIMa_RSyjtN0/s400/musictoolbar.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353075527357213314" /></a><br />When you search it loads the results from the music search engine and there is a toolbar on top which you can close if you find the song. If you don't find it on the first site you have a choice of 19 sites which you can search with just a click of a button on the toolbar. You can also open the results from the search engines in separate tabs by middle clicking on the toolbar icons. This makes searching for even the most obscure songs simple.<br /><br />Using the <strong>Music</strong> category you will only find sites where you can stream songs. If you want to download the MP3 songs select the <strong>MP3</strong> category from the category combo.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFmDq4eJQzY9t9ng4IgBPZo-ulJ528o1X8PmEvieO_rBJ7Bt_tz-XLFYlifRYwgkKttLCw1tdG9P8zzo2f-9w81cWE5PGx3edWVgOYvTyFnX0nyrz2EVjrYrpGgi4MxVrxiOxiRRtdw_0/s1600-h/mp3search.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 221px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFmDq4eJQzY9t9ng4IgBPZo-ulJ528o1X8PmEvieO_rBJ7Bt_tz-XLFYlifRYwgkKttLCw1tdG9P8zzo2f-9w81cWE5PGx3edWVgOYvTyFnX0nyrz2EVjrYrpGgi4MxVrxiOxiRRtdw_0/s400/mp3search.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353079899910305650" /></a><br />When you load <a href="http://fefoo.com">fefoo</a> for the first time the MP3 search is not visible.

Now you can search for MP3 files on the MP3 search engines. Once you search for a song you can select the search engines from the fefoo toolbar and refine your search till you find the song.Adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08085962773172620855noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3649791701845436605.post-31807840062901220042009-06-25T19:38:00.000-07:002009-06-30T02:58:27.049-07:00Introducing handy tips for using fefooThis is a blog about tips and tricks in using the brand new search engine <a href="http://fefoo.com">fefoo</a>.
