Quicker Access to Grooveshark Songs

January 26th, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

A few months back I had discussed how to use keywords in firefox, and make your browsing experience better. Well, if you’ve begun using keywords, you might as well use them for grooveshark to play almost any song in the world.

Grooveshark logoThe stumbling block however, is that grooveshark’s keyword can not be made in the same way as we had described earlier. And the reason for that is, that the current grooveshark website is made entirely in flash. Right clicking on the search bar, doesn’t give you the regular options you expect! So what do you do? Don’t despair. I have a nice piece of nugget for you :)

In firefox, press Ctrl+Shift+B to open up the bookmarks library. Then click on “Organize”, followed by “New Bookmark”.

A new window should come up. Fill in the empty fields with the following:

Name: Grooveshark
Location: http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/search/songs/?query=%s
Keyword: gs

Now, click on “Add” and you’re all set! Go to the address bar (ctrl + l(el)), type in “gs I’m yours”, and press enter. The screen that will load up will have the song “I’m yours” dangling right in front of you waiting to be played!

Of all keywords, I think this keyword makes a lot of sense as it helps one skip the heavy flash on grooveshark’s homepage. Cheers for keywords!
