G.B.Switcher

A fast switcher for switching between google and baidu, without losing your search keywords G.B.Switcher has only one function: when you are googling something, click the icon in the address bar, chrome will open a new tab, and show you the searching result of baidu.com, and vice versa. The extension only works when surfing google.com, google.com.hk, google.cn(both http and https protocols) and baidu. For bug reporting and feature request, mail me at [email protected]. ======================================================== 2015-11-15: * It now works AGAIN. Minor bug fixed. ======================================================== 2010-08-07: *High CPU usage problem solved. *Since google's SSL search service cannot be reached in China, it uses the http version *Google search result will be open in a new tab ======================================================== * Thanks to the inconsistency of baidu's searching url parameters between different search products, the extension may not work when searching for news, images and so on. The bug was fixed. * Some optimization of the javascript code. =================================================== 2010-08-07: *Fixed high CPU usage. *Switched back to http because https was inaccessible. Generally there should not be much of a problem now. *Google search results will open in a new tab. ------------------------------ This was made for people who want to save effort. Chrome lets you type keywords directly in the address bar, which I enjoy using, but sometimes Google's results are poor and I don't want to type the address and keywords again to search Baidu, so I made this. How to use: After installation, an icon appears at the end of the address bar. When searching, wait for the Google page to appear and click the icon. A new tab will automatically open and search Baidu for your keywords. Occasional crashes may occur. The extension cannot retrieve blocked search terms.
