An Address bar is a space to type and display the address for a Web page. You don't even need to type the entire Web site address to go to that page. Just start typing, and the AutoComplete feature suggests a match based on Web sites you visited previously.
With the Address bar, you can also search for Web sites just by typing find, go, or ? followed by a word that you're searching for.
