Firefox keyboard shortcut

I'm a big fan of keyboard shortcuts, vi, gmail, alias...Now thanks to a friend at work, I am more efficient at browsing as well. Especially when combined with search strings, these firefox shortcuts are great.

This is all you have to do:
1. copy/change the html below into a file ending in .html
2. select Bookmarks > Manage Bookmarks in Firefox
3. select File > Import... in the bookmark manager
4. select "From File"
5. find your file and continue

After you are done, you can type "s love" on your browser address bar to find love.
