Thank you for freeing me. Would be handy if you there was a way of removing the thousands upon thousands chrome has added already... seriously google.. huge security issue here.

This extension has been so useful to me. Efficient management of my search engines boosts my productivity tenfold.

Excellent! I personally use the search engine keyword feature a lot (e.g. g for Google, d for dictionary.com, wk for Wikipedia, wa for WolframAlpha, so for StackOverflow, etc.) and I hate sites randomly polluting my search list with entries I don't want. Would highly recommend. Edit: as of 2022 Chrome comes with a similar feature built-in - search engines are added but are "inactive" until explicitly activated by the user in Chrome settings. I think it's an arguably better implementation, which is why I will no longer be using this extension. Still, thank you Mr./Mrs. developer for your extension's great service!
