Google Chrome adds three new useful address bar shortcuts; check details inside

The technology giant Google has introduced three site search shortcuts @tabs, @bookmarks, and @history in the Chrome address bar.

These shortcuts allow you to search directly for the correct tab, bookmark, or URL from the address bar, according to Google’s blog post.

@bookmarks, @history, @tabs: How it works

If you type “@tabs” in the address bar that will show you matching suggestions from your open tabs. The feature could come in handy if you usually have several tabs open and need to locate a specific tab quickly.

Similarly, the “@bookmarks” shortcut can help you find the bookmark you’re looking for. It will redirect you to the relevant bookmarked website and will search all your bookmark folders.

The last shortcut is called “@history”, and this feature will let you quickly search through your browsing history directly from the address bar, and open the page you’re looking for.

These search shortcuts are currently rolling out with Google Chrome 108 for desktops.
