Adding More Searches To Chrome's Omnibar

You gotta love Chrome's auto-add search feature of omnibar! But what if you want to do an image search and rather than typing "images.google.com kittens" you want to just be able to type "images kittens"? Well, easy enough, just right-click on address bar and select Edit search engines... Now just change the keyword from images.google.com to images and Bang! you are in business.


Here is a list of some of my favorite quick searches (in Name, Keyword, URL ordering):

Google Maps
