  This seems very cool. I'm a bit new to this though and have no clue how to go about installing it. If that could be clarified I'm sure I'd love the feature.

    Sure thing! Sorry I didn't notice your message earlier. It's nothing more than a python script, so if you're on linux and you have google-chrome installed you're good to go (python is installed by default). All you need to do to install it is add the script to a folder in your system path. '/usr/bin' is a common choice. Then restart any terminal windows you already had open, and you're ready to use the script. Windows isn't currently supported, but if you're a windows user and have an interest in using the script I'd be glad to whip up a windows version. Usage: $ google search terms (no quotes necessary) Examples: Search google maps for New York City $ google -maps New York City Search google images for cats $ google -images cats
