http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/InteractivelyDoThings

I combine it with these settings

      ido-confirm-unique-completion t
      ido-default-buffer-method 'samewindow
      ido-use-filename-at-point 1
      ido-use-url-at-point nil
      ido-ignore-buffers  '("^ " "\\.org\\'" "\\.bbdb\\'" "^\\*Egg")
      ido-enable-flex-matching t      
      ido-max-prospects 6          
      ido-confirm-unique-completion t
