Developer makes searching faster on Wikipedia

Now you can search faster on Wikipedia, as developer Chirag Mehta has created a fast, dynamic search box that loads related-keywords as you type. It will show the best matches, as it is powered by Google. You can also use the search engine to go directly to anything you’re looking for, e.g. : http://chir.ag/wiki/something. Quite a few search interfaces have popped up in time to backup Wikipedia’s built-in search box, bettering the service.
