Google on Steroids or vi for search engines - Yubnub

Seems I am a bit slow to the party on Yubnub - I guess I kind of see it like a cross between the unix command line and the vi of search engines - it has modes, commands and even split screens:

For example: ls australia gives you all the yubnub commands that include Australia.

Here’s some of my favourites:

gaus <searchterm> - Google.com.au Australia localised search - pages from Australiagau
ebayau <product> - Ebay Australia search
auspc <town> - Australian Postcode search
shopbot <product> - Shopbot search (Australia’s equivalent of pricewatch.com)
seek <job keywords> - Search Australia’s #1 Jobsite
seekit <job keywords> - As above but specifically for IT
ypau <business name> - Search Australian Yellowpages
wpau <name> - Search Australian Whitepages
tvoz <program name> - Australian TV guide

Some other commands I use often:

whois <domain or ip address> - Whois lookup for a domain or IP
slg <searchterm> - Search Windows Live and Google in a split screen
pycook <searchterm> - Searches python cookbook
kodpy <searchterm> - Searches python snippets on Koders.com
py <module name> - Searches python module documentation
tiny <url> - Creates a tiny url
gim <search term> - Search google images
gvid <search term> - Google video search
gl <search term> - Google linux search
en2sp <word> - English to Spanish translator
spanish <word> - Spanish to English translator
wiki <search term> - Wikipedia (english) search
gmt <location> - Local time in Location

Of course it also covers many that google has already:

calc, define etc.

Anyway, I am loving it.
