Right-click on steriods

There's a really cool little extension for Firefox called Hyperwords. After installing Hyperwords (for free, by the way), one simply selects a word in ye olde fashionne of click-and-drag and the drop-down menu appears. From the top, the menu gives you the ability to ...

• Search for the selected word in everything from Youtube and Google to Netflix and Metacafe
• Reference the word through dictionary.com, wikipedia or even IMDB.com
• Translate the selected text into a dozen languages on screen (fairly accurately, too)
• Do the usual copy, paste, search, the usual gamut
• Search Ebay, Amazon, iTunes or Craigslist for related products
• Go directly to a submitting page to blog about the selected text (Blogger, Livejournal, Twitter, Wordpress) or search one of the big blog searchers for it (Technorati, et al)

Basically, it's friggin' awesome. And, as a free extension that takes less than a minute to load up, completely worth ... well, a lot more than you pay.
