I've been using it for ages and only this week discovered an extremely
useful feature - type "goto search term" in the address bar and it'll do a
Google I'm Feeling Lucky search on the search term. If you can guess
easily how to bring up a site as the first result, then this is extremely
quick. For example: "goto tfl 2016 map".

And if you happen to want to go to the TFL home page, you just type in
"Transport for London" (without the quotes) and, lo and behold.... The
one that doesn't work is "Live departure boards" as they've moved it!

You can also add your own keywords to any bookmark, which is again
very useful, so you can quickly access links even if they're not on your
quick links bar. For example, I have the keyword "tfljp" which takes me
directly to TfL's full Journey Planner, rather than the front page of
journeyplanner.org.

While that is quicker than typing in "TFL Journey Planner", you can do
that, too, without having to add in a link.
