Dave's Quick Search Deskbar Thingy
DQSD is a nifty little bag of bits that I've become quite dependent on over the last 4 years:

I did some development on the thing, got to know David Bau a bit (now a Google employee), and enjoyed it.
I hadn't touched the code in a couple of years (even though I still use it every day), but last night I finally become annoyed enough about a dictionary search to tweak one of the searches.
The Merriam Webster search now displays a nice lightweight popup window instead of throwing up a full browser window...

Flippin sweet.
