Reference Source with a Click

How often do you use Google to learn more about something in an online article, such as the location of a town, a person’s background, or the definition of a word? Rather than leave the Web page, get the browser add-on from Curiyo. Once installed on your computer, Curiyo identifies the most interesting words on any page you’re reading and subtly underlines them. Click on the underlined topic and a pop-up box appears with a choice of informa­tional sources particularly relevant to the subject. Click on a source and information on the topic appears in the pop-up box. If Curiyo doesn’t underline a topic of interest, then just execute a long click by holding a click on the word for a few seconds. The system is free and works with the four major browsers. Go to www.curiyo.com.
