Firefox has this useful thing where you type something in the address bar and it sends you straight there. Whenever there is ANYTHING (seriously, ANYTHING) that I need I type in "Wiki (whatever)" and it gives me good information and I type it over 10x a day. Wiki cites the sources at the bottom if you want to double check. At school I jokingly call it my bible since whatever I need I go straight to it.

Yeah I do the old "wiki ____" thing too... or simply "wiki" if I just want to go to Wikipedia in general.

The reason this happens is really because if you type something other than a web address into the firefox URL bar it will take you to the best matching page that you'd get from a search engine.

So if you put "Soldat" it will take you to www.soldat.pl
