Not sure which features are new, but one I hadn’t noticed before was that it includes an auto-replace feature, that can be used to create the automatic parsing of links I mentioned in another post.

As a separate HTML file on your PC, or online? Or are they just saved in your browser? For the sites I use regularly, I find it quicker just to type in the URLs, to be honest.

For the sites I use regularly, I find it quicker just to type in the URLs, to be honest.

Don't get me wrong: the cache is older than many other engines, but most of my searches are for fairly static pages which get drowned out in the SEO wars. I also love links to other engines along the bottom edge: I think altavista used to do that until it jumped the shark. I have a fairly large (30 or 40k) bookmarks file which I use first - and the links on my own site, too. Many seem to have forgotten how to bookmark in a structured way and the point of having a personal home page, or maybe they never knew because it's still September.
