The old address bar was a genius - if I typed in "Providence Restaurant" or "New York Times" it would go right to the site. But I just upgraded Firefox and now when I type words/phrases into the bar it just searches Google. Any advice? Thanks!

The address bar (location bar?) was always amazing at guessing what I wanted. I could type in any organization or restaurant or popular site and it would take me right there. But now that I've upgraded, if I type something in it just searches for it on Google (which is what I've already got a Google search bar for). Any help?

You can modify the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".
