It might be nice to display a tip (somehow) when...
...either search bar is first loaded or ...
...after a certain number of searches or ...
...after each search or ...
...only when ' Tip of the Day ' is selected from the menu
or ...
There's a bunch of good stuff (keyboard shortcuts,
searches, etc.) that most new users don't know about,
and something like this might be helpful.
I don't think a dialog would be very friendly, but a non-
obtrusive popup window might be.

I always turn those off first thing anyway. I'm pretty sure
everyone does. Don't waste time coding that - if someone
wants to know a trick, they can read the help file.

I think this is a very good idea, good for new and experienced
users alike. I don't know how many times I've been using a
program I've used for years and suddenly discovered a great
feature that I had no idea was there. As long as it's easy to
turn off for those who don't like it, I don't see it being a
problem. As long as someone has time to spend coding this, I
think it would be a great addition.
