Hey all! Just a very brief update... I wanted to share that I created a DuckDuckGo Instant Answer recently for ActiveWorlds keyboard shortcuts. This will appear above search results when you search certain key phrases like:

  • ActiveWorlds Cheat Sheet

You can check it out here!


Anyone can contribute to this sheet of shortcuts.  You can check this cheat sheet out on DuckDuckGo's dev community here.
