In most modern browsers the address bar is also the search bar, so effectively the search bar takes up zero room. If you configure your address bar search properties to use google, then you won't need to go to the google site.
Do you mean a tool bar?
Perhaps ivor4781 you will explain what you mean by a search bar. Is it the narrow box alongside the address box, in the Tool bar section at top of page.

Apple have a combined url bar and search bar. It works great.
Many browsers do, Gromit, such as Chrome and Opera.

baz isn't the only one that's confused. What do you type your search terms in to if not a search box?
I usually search bars to find a decent beer.

So you mean the additional toolbars such as the eBay toolbar, the Amazon toolbar and the thousands of others.

I don't use those either, I prefer a minimalist browser.
