I am amazed that so few people have ever heard of YubNub[1]. It's a service that provides this kind of feature (`g foo' to google, `gim bar' for google images, `am baz' for amazon, etc.), plus some advanced tricks (multiple parameters, default values, command combination). Anybody can create commands. It's a hidden gem, and I love it. [1]: http://yubnub.org http://yubnub.org
