Yes but it isn't as good as google.

Go to youtube.

Right click on the youtube search bar.

add a keyword for this search.

choose your keyword (ex: yt)

now you can type in the omnibar "yt my search" and it will do directly the search. It's not as good as chrome solution but it's the only thing for now.



Wow, that's absolutely awesome. It respects container tabs too (search opens in YouTube container tab if launched from any other container).

This'll actually make a measurable difference to me on a daily basis with how much I search youtube for study at the moment. Thanks.


Wow I actually like this better. Didn't know about these features in either browser though.


I remember first using this feature in IE6 back when that browser was new, and I've used it since then. I have "i" for IMDb search, "w" for WikiPedia. "g" goes to DuckDuckGo now after Google became malicious and evil, because of years of muscle memory.


You sir/mam have just revolutionised by browsing experience. I now love FF even more.


Here is more detail about creating custom keyword searches. For example, I have a Bugzilla keyword search so the keyword "bug" will expand the URL "https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=%s". Thus, entering "bug 1000000" in the address bar will expand to "https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1000000".
