Google new @ shortcut!

Okay!
So, basically, for those of you who didn't know, in Chrome you can easily access your history, tabs, bookmarks, and any custom searches or keywords you've set up before by simply typing '@' in the search bar. It's a convenient way to quickly navigate through your browsing information. Additionally, if you're feeling a bit lazy, you can always just hit the 'Tab' key to autocomplete your searches. Like so

But here's something even cooler! As of today, if you type '@gemini' in the search bar and hit enter, you can ask a question, and it will take you directly to the Gemini page for an answer when you press enter again. This feature may not be a game-changer, but it's a handy shortcut for anyone looking for quick answers without having to search through their bookmarks or browse extensively.

I just wanted to pass along this information for those who might not be aware of it and for those, like me, who will completely forget to utilize it. I'm really curious to see who will give it a try or even notice its presence. You can tell me in the comments if you'd even use this.
