Search EE Docs in Chrome URL Bar with an alias

I search the EE Docs, EE Forums and CI Docs all the time.  I created a short alias in the Chrome for each site to save time.  Chrome allows you to create custom search engine options.  You can see how here.

Use this code for your custom search: http://www.google.com/search?q=%s&as_sitesearch=expressionengine.com%2Fuser_guide%2F&x=0&y=0

Now when you type the short alias (EE in my case) then space, add your query and it will search the EE Docs.  Great way to save time while searching EE Docs, EE Forums, or whatever custom EE query you want to build.
