2. Keyword Search through Drag and Drop
When browsing content on a web page, if you encounter an unfamiliar term, perhaps in English, you can search for this keyword using the drag-and-drop method: Highlight the word you want to search for, then drag and drop it into Google Chrome's address bar. This will display the search results for you.
3. Open Web Pages in Desired Tab Positions
You can rearrange tab positions to your liking when opening web pages by selecting the URL of the web page and then dragging and dropping it to the desired position.
4. Browse Files Stored on Your Computer
Another interesting feature is that you can browse files on your computer using the address bar by entering the desired hard drive partition on the address bar (C:/ or D:/, ...). Then, the folders and files in the selected hard drive partition will be displayed for you to view.
