    If you use Chrome then you already do.

    If you use Firefox and never went into the settings to change the default omnibar settings then you already do.

        The bar at the top of the browser that acts as both a place to enter addresses and enter searches. It’s not strictly an address bar nor a search bar. It’s both. It’s all. It’s omni.

          “Omnibar” is Chrome’s naming, though. Firefox’s component is technically called “Awesomebar”, although most folks do just call it “address bar”, “URL bar”, “nav bar” etc…

            I think the Firefox settings now call it the address bar when selecting if you want it to do both functions or have separate boxes. It may still be that internally.

            Also I just looked it up and apparently I was wrong anyways and the Chrome internal docs call it the omnibox actually…

            And the chromium developers blog calls it the address bar…

            And so does The Keyword (blog.google)…

            I think they’ve both given up on getting the public to use their special names now that it’s just an expected feature of a browser.
