O.K., I answered the question, (I answered Yes) Now, Why do you ask?
Have you come up with an idea that will make it easier to do?
Or better yet, Are you gonna get Google to pay us for doing this?
Yes I do!
No, but it's a good idea.
Why bother!
When reading posts on CNCzone, do you momentarily leave the Zone to search GOOGLE for an answer or example related to the post you were previously reading?
Yes I do!
No, but it's a good idea.
Why bother!

While in CNCZone I do not close it, but I open another program. Often times I open one or more instances of CNCZone. Externally I will open Google or another search engine to search for something in CNCZone, because the Zone search function is rather poor. You can limit your search mostly to the Zone by including "www.cnczone.com" in your search list.
One of the problem search words is DNC . The Zone search finds no results.
Unfortunately googling "www.cnczone.com" "DNC" produces a lot of unwanted results.

ive got dual head, one monitor for cnczone, one for my googling, so i dont actually leave.
Woohoo, 100th post, no more sweeping chips for me![]()
Do the only sensible thing and ditch IE![]()
Firefox has tabbed browsing. Why would you use anything else![]()
Most of the time I just open a new window also.

I'll have to agree with the others on the "search engine in the zone". I never find what I'm looking for. I split the screen (19" flat panel) with the zone and my home page which searches Google, Yahoo, MSN, and Ask. The results are great. Optimum Online is great for Searching for what you want to find.
I've been wondering about FireFox which is available through Optimum.

I always have an instance of IE open at the Google advanced search. That is my home page. CTRL+N opens as many instances as I want in the blink of an eye. The tabs are just on the bottom of my screen with IE.![]()
Right now I have 8 pages open, 1 Google and 7 CNCzones. I open all of the "search for new posts" pages because they change so often and the search fails if I start reading first. I'm sure others must do the same no matter which browser they use.
I dont leave any sites to go to any others unless I'm done with them, the solution is called.....
MOZILLA FIREFOX
http://getfirefox.com
its simple, just centerclick on a link and it opens in a new tab, use ctrl+t and it opens a new tab and you can switch between them... I often have over 10 tabs open, its like having 10 browsers open but better.
They also have many good extensions, the main one I use is tabbed browser preferences.
