Search the web from an Amazon Kindle

The search functionality on the Amazon Kindle allows you to search the book you are reading. But there's a trick you can use to also use this to search the web. To search the web from your Kindle, enter your search terms then put in a space and then @web

When you add the @web to the end of your search term, your Kindle will search the web instead of your book.
