Today I am following up with a smaller but also useful list of keyboard shortcuts for Google:
Just Opt-in to Google experimental search:
In this case you will be offered the following shortcuts to use:
j - Selects the next result.
k - Selects the previous result.
o - Opens the selected result (same as <Enter>).
/ - Puts the cursor in the search box.
<esc> - Removes the cursor from the search box.
You will also see the list of available shortcuts to the right of search results (above paid search results) every rime you perform the search. The currently selected results is picked by the > sign.
