Abstract
Methods and systems allow users to enter natural language terms that describe a particular web site into an address field of a browser instead of a formal URL. The terms are evaluated to determine whether they correspond, with a high likelihood, to a particular web site. If so, this web site may be immediately accessed. If not, a list of search results based on the terms may be displayed by the browser.

2. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
determining that, among a set of search results that are each identified as at least potentially relevant by a search engine in response to a search query submitted to the search engine, one single, particular search result is classified by the search engine as very relevant to the search query; and in response to determining that, among the set of search results that are each identified as at least potentially relevant by the search engine in response to the search query submitted to the search engine, one single, particular search result is classified by the search engine as very relevant to the search query, determining to provide an instruction to automatically output a document that is referenced by the one single, particular search result that is classified by the search engine as very relevant to the search query, rather than to provide a search results page that references a subset of the set of search results that are each identified as at least potentially relevant in response to the search query. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

10. A system comprising:
-
one or more computers and one or more storage devices storing instructions that are operable, when executed by the one or more computers, to cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising; determining that, among a set of search results that are each identified as at least potentially relevant by a search engine in response to a search query submitted to the search engine, one single, particular search result is classified by the search engine as very relevant to the search query; and in response to determining that, among the set of search results that are each identified as at least potentially relevant by the search engine in response to the search query submitted to the search engine, one single, particular search result is classified by the search engine as very relevant to the search query, determining to provide an instruction to automatically output a document that is referenced by the one single, particular search result that is classified by the search engine as very relevant to the search query, rather than to provide a search results page that references a subset of the set of search results that are each identified as at least potentially relevant in response to the search query. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing software comprising instructions executable by one or more computers which, upon such execution, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
-
determining that, among a set of search results that are each identified as at least potentially relevant by a search engine in response to a search query submitted to the search engine, one single, particular search result is classified by the search engine as very relevant to the search query; and in response to determining that, among the set of search results that are each identified as at least potentially relevant by the search engine in response to the search query submitted to the search engine, one single, particular search result is classified by the search engine as very relevant to the search query, determining to provide an instruction to automatically output a document that is referenced by the one single, particular search result that is classified by the search engine as very relevant to the search query, rather than to provide a search results page that references a subset of the set of search results that are each identified as at least potentially relevant in response to the search query. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21)
