If any of you still use Firefox, they incorporated Google search into the location/address bar, just like Google Chrome.

So, now you can type "google chrome board" to search google for "google chrome board" instead of using the search engine widget on the top right.

Actually, that's been in Firefox for quite a while, and it's a little buggy still. Not even nearly as sophisticated as Google Chrome's Onibox!

It's been like that a while bud, but it doesn't exactly mimic the omnibar, alot of times if you type just one word, it will try to go to that word .com
