New bang on duckduckgo: !ozbargain

I submitted this one a long time ago, but if you use duckduckgo you can now go "!ozbargain blah" (without the quotes) and it'll search on the site for blah.

Should speed up some users' access to the site's many deals :D

      How does bookmarking the site make it faster to search for things? Bangs on duckduckgo allow you to quickly leverage features of many sites - https://duckduckgo.com/bang

      (I'm not associated with them, I'm just a fan of their system)

    With Chrome I just define OzBargain as a new search engine with keyword "ozb" linked to http://www.ozbargain.com.au/search/node/%s. I can then type in the URL bar

    ozb <Tab> eneloop <Enter>

    to search for Eneloop deals, bypassing other search engines completely.

      Yep, that's another way to do to it - it's possible that ozbargain's search page metadata could be updated to include open search (http://www.opensearch.org/Home) metadata so that would be automatically added to your browser :)

        I'll take a look. I've had that shortcut for so long I wasn't aware that some people might need to add it to their browsers.

        • That'd be cool - happy to help with testing - because making the internet better is always a good thing :D

      Never knew about this feature, thanks.
