Cmd + Shift + T to open recently closed tab is a popular one that not everybody knows or uses readily. I like to customize search to include various services - like using "g" as a shortcut to search google groups, or "d" as a shortcut to search google drive. This is URL based so works for any application which takes a query parameter such as " https://app.com/search?q=%s " if I switch to a different browser (or sometimes to a different chrome profile) and my search shortcuts aren't there - it really stands out! Even using new "@" omnibar shortcuts like @ tabs or @ bookmarks seems to be too much typing... I mean - its fine for one off use - but if you use it frequently I like to create a single letter shortcut, so instead of typing @ bookmarks - it's just "b" followed by search term (bookmarks search URL is chrome://bookmarks/?q=%s). Haven't figured out the @ tabs yet - there doesn't appear to be a direct search URL - but the good news if you start typing something in the omnibar itself - if it matches an already opened tab - it gives you an option to open that tab (so @ tabs seems a bit redundnant) I also use a select and search extension (Simple=Select+Search) to save me from having to type - highlighting the term and right click -> Select+Search gets you there.
