Make Safari use the standard CMD+K for Google Search
5:10PM Sarah Stokely | If you’re used to the default CTRL-K or CMD-K keyboard shortcut to highlight the Google search box in most browsers, Safari’s slightly different command (CMD-Shift-L) might be driving you nuts. Never fear, the 5ThirtyOne blog helpfully walks you through how to get CMD-K to bring up the Google search box:
Open System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard shortcuts
Select the add button at the bottom left corner
Select Safari from the applications drop down menu
For menu title, enter “Google Search…” (… = option +
Focus on the Keyboard Shortcut textbox and press CMD+K
Select ‘Add’ and restart Safari
Amusingly, APC web editor Dan Warne points out on his blog that Firefox 3 has adopted Safari’s CTRL-Shift-L command as an alternative for bringing up the Google search box – something he describes as an attempt to make Firefox more “Mac-like”.

Google adds ’search within this site’ option
9:00AM Sarah Stokely | Google has just souped up its ability to ‘teleport’ you to the exact website you want, even if you just type in its generic name without the appropriate .com or .net ending. Now it has added a supplementary search box which will crop up in the search results for the site you’re looking for.
The writeup on the Official Google Blog gives the example of searching for “NASA” when you’re looking for information about the Hubble telescope. The search result for NASA pops up a few NASA specific links, followed by the “search within the site” search box (as pictured above).
This secondary search box won’t appear for every search, however. Google hasn’t said which sites will get the ’search withiin the site’ box – it’s down to Google’s secret algorithymic sauce, apparently. “This feature will now occur when we detect a high probability that a
user wants more refined search results within a specific site,” reads the blog post.
