General
What's a kwarg?
A kwarg is a keyword shortcut to another search interface. In other words, typing "google dr katz" into our search box will take you to the google results for "dr katz". Similarly, "yahoo home movies" takes you to the yahoo! result for "home movies", and so on with over 8,000 kwargs and growing.
What about my privacy? What information do you keep?
Searches are logged for use in future features of the plugin, but they are not linked to your user account. In other words, we may be able to tell that there were 100 searches on Google for "Iron Man", but we are not able to tell who searched for it. Additionally, all passwords stored in our database are encrypted using a 1-way encryption algorithm, meaning that no one, not even the administrators of this site, can tell what your password is. For this reason, passwords can only be reset, not recovered.

What is a favorite?
A favorite is a bookmarked kwarg. It will show up in a list on the main page. To add a favorite, type it into the kwarg finder on the main page, and select "favorite" on the right. To remove a favorite, go to settings.
What is an alias?
An alias is a way to rename a kwarg to something you find easier to remember or use. For example, if you alias "g" to"google", you'll be able to type "g dr katz" instead of "google dr katz" to search Google for "dr katz". To create an alias, in the kwarg browser on the front page, type the kwarg you want to create an alias to and click "make alias". Aliases can be administered in the settings page.
