Bangs for Google

Automatically use DuckDuckGo for Bangs, keeping Google for all other searches.

Installation

"Quick Copy URL" is availible through the Firefox Add-On Platform and chrome web store.

How does it work? How is the performance?

"Bangs for Google" uses the webRequest API, commonly also used in AdBlockers, to catch your Google Search queries before Google even loads. Due to this, the redirects to DuckDuckGo will happen very quickly.

The extension simply checks if you are currently on Google and your search query begins with a "!" - if so, it will redirect you to DuckDuckGo using the same search query.
