Simple = Select + Search Extension

It's simple: select some text, right-click, and search on your preferred search engines.

Configuring your search engines is very easy: There are multiple pre-configured search engines to pick from (like Amazon, BBC, CNN, etc.), plus you can add any other you might like. To add new search engines, follow instructions in the Help section of the Options page.

Once a new search engine is configured, it will show up the next time you select some text in your browser, right-click it, and go to the Simple = Select + Search menu option.

It's my first public extension. I hope you like it.
