Chrome Smart Site Search

I noticed that several sites have Chrome search functionality built in. If I type stackoverflow.com and then hit a space in the address bar, I get:Chrome site search

Which takes me to this: SO search

How it's done, major sites like Stackoverflow and github have this feature, but sites that don't apply this standard to regular google searches
