If anyone remembers web accelerators from internet explorer this does the same thing. You highlight any text on a webpage and icon will pop up allowing you to search the selected text in custom search engines. Menus can be customize and can also add search engines into the right click context if you want them.
I find it has a fairly small footprint within your memory usage. I use it when shopping online, find a product say on ebay then i highlight the product name/ model number and search if its cheaper anywhere else or just a better product description, without typing a load of text in a search engine.
