With a simple key stroke, or mouse scroll, you can "switch" from searching Google to searching Amazon, Ebay, Youtube, etc.; without ever leaving the Google homepage!

How It Works:
Upon using any of the shortcuts (defined below), the Google logo and search box (on Google.com), will be "switched" to the logo and search box of the chosen website.

How To Use:
With Google.com open, use any of the following shortcuts to switch between searchable websites:

Scroll Through Search Options/Sites:
Mouse Scroll Wheel Down = Next
Mouse Scroll Wheel Up = Previous
Control + Up Arrow = Next
Control + Down Arrow = Previous

Jump Directly To Specific Search Options/Sites:
Mouse-click + A = Amazon
Mouse-click + E = Ebay
Mouse-click + W = Wikipedia

Mouse-click + Y = Youtube
Mouse-click + P = Pintrest

Known Issues:
1. The mouse-click does not work on Mac trackpads (and other similar trackpads without a physical button). Users can still use the drop down menu, and control + up/down arrows, to switch search options.

Under Development:
1. Support for international Google domains (ex: Google.co.uk)
2. Localization for Amazon and Ebay.
3. Ability to change the pre-defined shortcuts.
4. Ability to add additional sites & search engines.
