    You win my eternal gratitude for mentioning Mayflower, but unfortunately the index for it hasn’t been updated since October last year. :(

    Argh, really? It’s not because of a lack of dumps, is it?

    In firefox, Wikipedia is also available in the integrated web search, which also shows articles that start with what you type. See http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/features/#search

    Wow, didn’t know about the autocomplete — cool. (And surprising, ’cause I use firefox.)
