Made my own search plugin for firefox

Steps:
1. Open the Firefox search plugins directory (/usr/lib/firefox-3.6/searchplugins/) in "su" mode.

2. Create a "mysearch.src" file e.g.:

3. If you want, to search into a particular website, use the siteserach tag. You may comment "suggestqueries" and "defaultEngine" tags if not required.

4. If you like to see a nice icon next to the search name, add a 16x16 gif file with exactly the same name in the same location where you placed the .src file.

5. That's it - Restart firefox, type Ctrl+K to reach the Firefox Search Box, choose the above engine from the drop-down list and start searching. It makes searching your favorite blogs so much simple and fast.
