How to "paste and go" in Chrome using keyboard

[trigger_my_passion]

I made a post on how to set a keyboard shortcuts that will automate the steps of focusing the address bar, pasting the copied URL and hitting Go.

Win+v: Pastes the URL (should have been already copied) in the address bar and hits return.

Win+Alt+v: Paste and go in a new tab.

Kinda strange they're using the Windows key for that. I would have figured Shift+Ctrl. I always thought of the Windows key being used for system functions or global shortcuts.

There's no rule that windows key must be used. It can be easily changed to your desired modifier (ctrl, alt, shift etc. or any combination of these).
