I love using Google chrome for my daily browsing, it just loads fast and does the job I need it to do (although I love FireFox as a developer). Anyways, I love using the quick search feature they have built into the browser. If you don’t know what I’m talking about I’ll show you.

First you type in Google.com, like below.

Then you press the TAB key, and you get the search box.

Nothing new here if you are a regular chrome user, but check this out. What if you don’t like Google (I bite my tongue a little as I say this). What if you like Bing? What if you like Yahoo!? What if you want to search WordPress.com?

Well all you have to do is type the address and press tab. Pretty cool if you ask me. This trick only works with certain sites, so play around with a few and see if you can’t discover one that is search enabled through the Chrome awesome bar.

No longer waste time navigating to the front page of a search engine, you could use those extra seconds for something more useful.
