We're already there. It's called "Google". In the the vast majority of cases I have seen, people don't type domain names, they search the web. When they do type a domain name, they usually type it into the Google search box. (Alternatively, they type everything into the browser's "address bar", which is really a "search-the-web bar" in most browsers.) (Replace "Google" with search engine of your choice.) -- Ben
