The most common search in Google is 'Google' apparently...

Probably some of that is people like me who accidentally hit enter instead of ctrl-enter after typing google, causing it to go to google and search for the word google.

It puts http://www.<what you typed>.com and then navigates to that location. Works in IE, Firefox, and Safari (haven't checked other browsers.

Go to the address bar and type "google" - then hit ctrl-enter. Ctrl-shift-enter is .org, and alt-shift-enter is .net.

Oh thanks, I was trying ctrl-enter in the search bar, not the address bar.
