I discovered one of those amazing google services today. It’s called “Browse by Name”, and it’s basically an improved “I’m feeling lucky”. If you don’t know what “I’m feeling lucky” is, it’s a button on www.google.com that will redirect you to the first hit on what ever you have googled. This is a great time saver, however using the “I’m feeling lucky” button does not always direct you to the site you wanted. So what “Browse by Name” does is to try and improve that with some google mojo. “Browse by Name” will only redirect you to a site if it is certain that the first hit is correct, otherwise it will simply return a regular search.

Either way I created a custom search for alfred that searches “Browse by Name”.
