Highlight your text and search it with yubnub. (Ctrl+shift+K)
I'm damned lazy ,this is why i use Yubnub, a terrific tool for a quick shortcut to all i need on the web (imdb,images,googlegroups,wikipedia,translation..).
I access Yubnub's command within firefox with a fantastic "Jomdom" search plugin that enable yubnub with Ctrl+K ; i decided to write FastYub, a firefox plugin that add "highlight and search" feature.
With Ctrl+shift+k , can be used in two different ways:
1. Text highlighted and Ctrl+shift+k ---> insert your command (example: gim) and confirm
2. Simple Ctrl+shift+k --> insert your command and text (example: gim porsche) and confirm
Shortcut (Ctrl+shift+k) is still hard coded and cannot be customized.
As usual is quick and dirty (mani avanti), give it a shot and let me know

Cool! I've mentioned it here: http://yubnub.blogspot.com/2006/01/firefox-plugin-for-yubbing-highlighted.html
I've been waiting for an extension like this. Great idea!
I've noticed that if you have multiple tabs open and words highlighted on multiple tabs, it will sometimes grab a highlighted word from an inactive tab instead of the highlighted text on the top tab.
Otherwise, it's great.
