A bit more useful might be this query for the currency converter:

Though I didn't realize that Google Suggest in the Firefox search box
would give you the answer without sending you to a results page.
That's pretty nifty, but I don't even use the search box... I find
that keyword searches straight from the address bar work well, plus
that means I always use the same box no matter whether I'm entering a
search query or a URL.
