In order to make something a habit, it helps to make that thing easy to do. I was impressed with Google Doctype (both the idea and the execution), but I often forget about it when the time comes to look something up. Enter my new set of Firefox quick searches. Using some intermediary PHP, I can turn a quick search for "html ins" into http://code.google.com/p/doctype/wiki/InsElement. Likewise for DOM and CSS pages. Hopefully that will make Doctype more present in my day-to-day coding.

A good one-up would be a Doctype sidebar, akin to Edgewall's Python Sidebar.
