“I’ve been satisfied with Google Chrome. So satisfied that I switched permanently from Firefox permanently. It’s either Chrome or any Chromium-based browser and nothing else for this Certified Hapless Techno Weenie. The only thing that bugs me is that whenever I install Chrome, the Omnibox will always use the localized version of Google’s search engine.

Here’s how to set up Google Chrome to make sure all your searches from the Omnibox uses Google.com and not a localized version.

• First, click the wrench icon, then go to Preferences.
• Under the Basics tab, go to the Default Search section, and then click on Manage.
• Click the Add button on the right.
• In the Name field, type in Google (or whatever you want).
• In the Keyword field, type in google (or something more to your liking)
• In the URL field, copy/paste or type this: http://www.google.com/search?q=%s
• Click on the Add button.
• On the Search Engines window, click on the newly created search engine and click on Make Default.
• Click on the Close button on the window, and on the succeeding one.

Your Omnibox is now set to use google.com whenever you search for anything.

Happy Hunting!”
