Googling for Python 3 Documentation

Here's a game:

You want to find the documentation for the open() function in Python 3. How do you Google?

'python open()' gets you right to the relevant page for Python 2. Is there anything that gets you to:

or even

Adding py3k to the search, or 3 or 3000, just confuses the issue, Google no longer sends you to documentation, but to resources on upconverting your Python 2 projects.

The fastest way I've found is to head to the py2 page, then add '/py3k' right before library (note the URL structure above). Wish I could bounce through google and get there more directly though!
