Yubnub Search The Web Ryan Carpenter http://www.yubnub.org/ Yubnub calls itself a (social) command line for the web. It is essentially a web-based version of DQSD in which searches are added and edited by all users at once.
Making Yubnub your default DQSD search (by adding "defaultsearch='yn';" to localprefs.js) will still direct your searches to Google, but give you access to the expanded set of searches on Yubnub.
Switches:
ls - (list) Show all of the searches availible on Yubnub
ge - (golden eggs) Show the most useful searches on Yubnub
man - Display help for a Yubnub command
less - Like the less command for GNU/Linux and other *nix variants. Shows the straight source code for any file on the Internet.
vil - Search McAfee's Virus Info Library for a virus, worm or hoax.
trailer - Uses Google to search Apple for the most likely movie trailer.
fanfree - Returns printer-friendly movie listings from Fandango (without advertisements). Takes city and state or zip code as a parameter.
nearby - Coordinate Conversion and Location Links. Enter a coordinate (eg GB/Irish Grid Reference, UK Postcode, US Zip, Lat/Long, UTM, NAC Universal Address) and it will be converted to other formats, as well as providing links to a Wide range of sites based on that location.
psize - Page size checker for the given url. Gives a list of the sizes of the found linked elements. Smart enough to detect page compression and when it does will show compresssed and uncompressed sizes (real, not estimated).
sc - Shoutcast search engine call
Yubnub switches do not require a / character, they only need to be the first word entered.
