Your search + random word = great results!

With normal Google searching, there are many web pages that you may never have a chance to see. So BananaSlug throws in a random word from a category of your choice. This results in pages you probably overlooked. They all have your search term in them, but the added twist gives you something new every time!

How it works

1. Enter your search term in the window
2. Select a category for your random word
3. That's it!
