This is a nifty feature of Firefox, which I just found out recently and loved. Note that the input area in the upper right shows dictionary.com. So when I read any page, and find some word I don't understand, I just have to select that word, right click, and choose "Search dictionary.com for xxx", and Firefox will open another tab in the background and shows the result in the tab, without interfering my reading. Of course the search engine shown in the pop-up window matches the one in the upper right corner. I love to use it to search on dictionary.com and wikipedia when I read. So convenient.
