Google Chrome Extension – Omgili Search, an Omnibox extension

Google Chrome Omnibox Search extension that enables you to search Omgili (omgili.com) from the Omnibox.  To use, simply type ‘omg’, a space, and your search query into the Omnibox, then choose a time frame from the drop down, and it will open your search results up in a new tab. Omgili is a time sensitive international message board search engine (in case you didn’t know).
