Bounce is a nifty extension for Mozilla Firefox which allows users to manage and compare search results from different search engines. When you search for a specific keyword, the extension displays additional search engine icons at the bottom of the page. Clicking on any of them will display the entries from that search engine, hiding the duplicate ones. If you want, you can even display the duplicate entries as well from the options provided. The extension even adds a toolbar in Firefox which display different search engine icons as well.

One thing to note here is that the icons of search engines are only displayed when you search using Google or Bing.

Features

• Simple and easy to use
• Manage and compare different search results
• Hides duplicate search results
• Works with Google and Bing only
