I'm sure everyone and his brother already discovered this, but I just figured it out. Did you know that in Safari, you can do a Google search in a new tab just by pressing Command-Enter? Right on, Apple!
 
yes..actually you open a new tab by cmd+enter. So either you do a google search or write in main window..
Also you can middle click (if you have a 3 button mouse) on any bookmark or any link on any webpage to open that in a new tab... :) i really find that very helpful..being as lazy as i am
cheers
 
This doesn't work for me. I hold down command (apple), and hit enter, and all I get is an 'error' alert sound. I have tabs enabled and I use them so I know they work; what's wrong?

cmd+enter only works if you have something typed in the google search field. cmd+t will open a new blank tab
