Schoolr: Google, Wikipedia, Dictionary.com, and more on one site
Okay, so most of us are out of school, but Schoolr can still be of great use. Schoolr is a site that ties the functionality of Google, Wikipedia, Dictionary.com, Thesaurus.com, Reference.com, a citation builder, foreign language translator, unit converter, and a book summary into one website. The idea is very simple, Schoolr is a simple one page website with all this functionality built right in. Best of all, Schoolr’s main page is ad-free which makes it really easy to use. No need to register, just show up and use.

I like mine better.
I was inspired by the following site, several years ago.

Not a bad idea, but I find it useless personally.
Firefox, in it’s stand-alone format, has the large part of these searches built right into the browser search bar, and many others can be added.
If like me you use the Google Toolbar’s search box in Firefox instead, you can generate a search feature within your search box’s dropdown list from any search field on any website, just through a simple right-click context menu.
No need to go through any websites such as this.
