Trying Chrome out
Southrop:
I believe you're misunderstanding.
Chrome has a keyword system for the omni-bar (that's what it's called, iirc). This gets automatically set up as you use certain websites.
For example, I use Anidb a lot. After searching on anidb once, Chrome automatically adds the keyword for anidb.net. Now, if i want to search on anidb, I can type "anidb.net name of anime series here" and it automatically searches on anidb (not google). Of course, this keyword can be edited. If you're lazy, instead of anidb.net, you can use just anidb or even adb. Of course, you can always use tab-autocomplete. In my case, I just do that. I can type ani-[tab] and it is ready to search on anidb.

Ya i've already edited all of them that i use but i feel it was easier to click which one i wanted and then paste or type my search then to type the shortcut then paste or type what i want to search.
I've used firefox for years so its hard to get use to something im not familiar with.

FWIW, Firefox has had keyword searching in the address bar for some time, albeit not automatically added like in Chrome. So, if you like the feature but not the browser, you can continue to use it when you go back.
