I also don't think this thread is the place to discuss these things, but since it's here already... Wouldn't search as you type be fundamentally broken on any website featuring keyboard shortcuts? (I'm not a Firefox user, so I don't know how that's handled). Pinned tabs are highlighted in Chrome when they receive updates. The pulsing used to be very eye-catching, but for some reason they now reduced it to an almost unnoticeable searchlight-like effect from left to right over the tab chrome and favicon. In Chrome you right click any search field and choose "Add as Search Engine", just like Firefox. It also picks up on any search that you've done automatically, so you can just tab-search from the URL bar as you're typing a site name that you haven't explicitly added a shortcut for. At the end of the day, they're both very excellent browsers that have almost reached full feature parity with one another. I don't think either one is better, it's just a personal flavor and preference at this point that you can't qualify, equivalent to preferring Chocolate over Vanilla ice cream. In fact, users now have 5 competing, well-built and standards based browsers to choose from. The true winner of this browser "war" was the end-user, which is who should have won.
