Quick Search With Safari & OSX

Here’s a very handy tip that I’ve just come across in an old copy of MacFormat:

If you have a block of text in an email, a text document or pdf, select it and drag it onto your Safari icon in the Dock. Safari will then perform a Google search on the text and display your results!

Another tip from the same magazine is concerning pasting text into a document and matching the formatting of the document. When you paste, instead of the standard cmd + v, use shift + alt + cmd + v.
