So a few years ago I went into my chrome configuration and added a new custom "Site Search". It's shortcut is "mdn" and the URL is "https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/search?q=%s&w=3&qs=plugin https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/search?q=%s&w=3&qs=plugi..." Now you can just "mdn <something>" in your omnibar and it will take you straight to the subject page or to a search results page. I find this shortcut invaluable when developing for the web.

very helpful link, thanks! I don't know what ominibar is (maybe Mac stuff), but I'm on Linux, but I replaced the "q=%s" with my string and it works. nice!

  "omnibar" is just chrome's slightly pretentious name for the address bar.
