Sogudi is a really nice (free) plug-in for Safari that allows you to define shortcuts and search strings for easy access. For example, Sogudi comes preinstalled with a shortcut to search MacOSXHints. With Sogudi installed, just enter hint search_term in the Address Bar (replacing search_term with your own serach terms), and Sogudi will display the results. It comes with several nice shortcuts already installed (including Google (goo), dictionary.com (dict), php.net (php), etc.), and you can easily create your own. Here's one I made for searching the MacOSXHints forums (you'll understand it better after installing Sogudi):

http://forums.macosxhints.com/search.php?
s=&query=@@@&searchuser=&exactname=yes&forumchoice
=-1&titleonly=&showposts=&searchdate=
-1&beforeafter=after&sortby=lastpost&sortorder=descending
&action=simplesearch&Submit=Perform+Search
The above should be all one line with no extra spaces...
