Useful software #bazillion

Next is Answers.com, which is a great website, but which also offers a nice, unobtrusive download and browser plugin feature. The toolbar can sit, hidden or revealed, on your desktop, and come up with answers to just about anything. In addition, you can ALT-click on any word or term anywhere on the web from within your browser (their language and interface is IE-centric, but the feature works in Firefox) and get the answers.com page on that word. Handy, again.

One of the information sources for them is Wikipedia, which is just about the coolest open source project ever. An encyclopedia that anyone can edit. ANYONE.
