  Awesome, I've been using the "Customize Google" Firefox plugin for these hacks for quite a while. Glad to see it's supported natively. Now we can get rid of those idiot domain squatters.

  Nice, as google is my homepage I often use it in place of bookmarks as it saves time, it is especially fast when the page is on top of results and i can just hit "lucky". This new addition should make it even more applicable
