Safari Tip: Search in Google in New Tab
Safari has this handy feature where you can select a word and right click to bring up a contextual menu, one of whose options is “Search in Google.” Trouble is, you lose whatever page you were browsing to the new Google search.
Well, the engineers at Apple thought of that, and if you have tabbed browsing enabled, just hold down the Command key when selecting this item, and your Google search will happen in a new tab behind the current tab.

If Apple “engineers” had really thought of it, they would have added the command to the contextual menu – the way firefox does it. Needing to hold down another key is not good ui – such action requires another hand to be used. Mine are all used up doing other things.
