On Windows:

- Created a folder called "shortcuts"

- Copy the folder URL into the system path (Control Panel, Environment variables something something)

- Create a shortcut of anything I want to hyperlink to and put in there, with descriptive names

- In IE, I think the setting was to enable autocomplete. For some reason that was linked to the autocomplete of the run menu item in Windows.

- For extra bonus points, add a shortcut of the shortcuts folder and put in the folder.

Result is that you can hit Win-R, type e.g. "sho" and it would autocomplete "shortcuts", or "ti" for "timesheet" etc etc. Way faster than clicking around for icons, just a half-second until your oft-used app/spreadsheet/folder/website is loading.

Question: how can I do this on Mac?
