This is addon for AME (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=189267) system. File should be installed via AME control panel. Special thanks to Digital Jedy (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?u=164758) for his valuable help.
After install - all links to google search results will be looking like this:
google rulezzz!!! (http://letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=answer+to+stupid+question)
Without this mod link looks like this:
http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=answer+to+stupid+question
Click, both to compare result. Enjoy and don't forget to click "installed" link :)
Tested with AME 2.0.2.

What exactly does this do? That demo link doesn't make any sense.

All links of such kind http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=answer+to+stupid+question will be automatically replaced with nice multimedia notification (example in first post).
That's useful, when you don't wish to explain everybody, that whey should use search prior to ask anything. Especially at big forums.

Need that sometimes, when your pointing out searches.
Although, you could get it directly from google?

I'm not sure, that understand your question.
LMSTFY is not my idea, I have no relation to that. That's a private project. AFAIK, google doesn't provide such service.
The only thing, done by this mod - simplify link publishing as much sa possible and substitute URL to nice notification. No bbcodes at all.
