Context Search: Browser Extension for Contextual Searching

Search Google directly from any page or tab with Context Search, a browser extension that allows users to find relevant information quickly without leaving the page.

What is Context Search?

Context Search is a browser extension available for Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Edge. It provides an easy way to search within the context of any website you are browsing, without having to leave the page or open a new tab.

Once installed, Context Search adds a small search bar to the top corner of your browser. When you click on it from any webpage, it will open a search box that limits results only to the domain you are currently visiting. For example, if you were reading an article on wikipedia and wanted to learn more about a topic mentioned, you could click the Context Search icon and search wikipedia right from that page.

This makes it very convenient to find related information without losing your place or having to reorient yourself on a new page. The search results open in a small overlay so you can quickly scan them and click any links that interest you, while still keeping the original page open underneath.

Overall, Context Search boosts productivity by enabling faster access to contextual information relevant to each page you visit. Whether you want to lookup unfamiliar terms, concepts, people or explore related ideas, Context Search puts the power of Google search in every tab.
