qk.rs | search quicker

I created a tool called qk.rs. It allows people to search sites with shortcuts. For example, a youtube search for pickleball would be yt.qk.rs/pickleball. DuckDuckGo has Bangs which is a similar concept, but here you don’t have to type the “!” and I added shortcuts to the places that are most popular or important to me.

Where it really shines is when it’s added to Google Chrome as a search engine. See this page: qk.rs/chrome

Since I made qk.rs my default search on Chrome I can type: ph sunsets to find sunsets in my Google Photos. Typing only the shortcut takes you to the site’s homepage.

Try it out. Let me know what you think. Happy to hear suggestions.
