C-s searches forward where C-r searches backwards, if you're used to using C-r to retrieve an earlier command via incremental search.
If not otherwise configured with stty, it's frequently set up for control flow along with C-q. If you find your terminal freezes after typing C-s, C-q will unfreeze it.
Disable with:
stty -ixon start undef stop undef
