Not sure what made Mozilla decide to remove the keyword/browse by name feature that made the original Awesome Bar so 'awesome.' It seems like they've been slowly making it harder and harder to use with their various updates over the years, having to go to about:config and type in some random value to keyword.URL to get it to work. Now with Firefox 23, even THAT doesn't work. Thanks to this plugin, the old behavior is restored and it's as simple as a few clicks. Other users please note that in order to use Google's "browse by name" feature, you'll need to go into the plugin's options page where there's a few drop-down menus that can give you the behavior you're looking for. Thank you Mike!!
