Not to sound like an asshole, but how is this different from inputting the url into the address bar?
On your blog you try and compare Zendo to Quicksilver. The difference is, Quicksilver essentially introduced an address bar to your computer. You're reintroducing the address bar for the internet. And if it's a tool I'm already using, I'll just have it bookmarked or stored in my history so that, say in FF3, I can type in 'Hack...' and 'Hacker News: news.ycombinator.com' will come up.
As far as design, stick a tag line in there explaining what Zendo does.
Perhaps there's a greater purpose that I'm not seeing, and if so, let me know.

You do, but your summation is accurate and suggestions are good. Yubnub ~ http://yubnub.org allowing users to customise shortcuts to what ever you want. Another idea would be to seed sites that you already visit but what about other sites that you might like? Delicious sort of solves this problem but never really suggests anything.
Maybe working out what users like (keywords) extracting sites from delicious tags might do something useful?

Congrats, though.
