Handy trick for mobile users

Filed under: — adam @ 12:04 pm

I have net access on my phone, but it’s reasonably slow. A click to follow a link is expensive, especially when I just want to look up a word or something.

I’ve noticed that answers.com and m-w.com are now both supporting putting a query in the url path:

http://www.answers.com/privacy
http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/privacy

Also, there’s gada.be search, which lets you do things like:

http://privacy.gada.be

Any others?
