I've been using Firefox for a quite some time, but I just discovered this by accident
Did you know that you could press the Spacebar to scroll the current page down one screenful?
Shift+Spacebar scrolls back up.
A further investigation (actually Googling, but I love to sound like a News Reporter) led me to this site, that lists keyboard shortcuts in Firefox, and the equivalents in Internet Explorer and Opera.
*Makes a mental note to try out all the keyboard shortcuts..
P.S. I think it's a day for Did you Know's.. my friend Anand has made a post on ways to use Gmail as an extra hard drive..
Lovely blog. Oh i neverKnew about thishortcut. Must try it out. Hey. Great links. I love your post titles. R u a journo?
ReplyDeleteI am Jacob, BTW
ReplyDeleteThere are many more interesting shortcuts.
ReplyDeleteOne of them is that pressing '/' will bring up the search. And if the searching results in a link, then it focuses on the link - so pressing "Enter" will activate the link.
Makes life a lot simple.
I have stopped using firefox, however, b ecause its too heavy, and buggy.
Not boasting around...but it works on all browser n short-keys come up with every installation...its always good to reply on shortcut keys though when laptop suddenly freezes up with so many apps running on it...
ReplyDeleteBtw, hope u have tried easter eggs on office suite??
Gmail file system was again something which came soon after gmail started on invitation basis..haven;t used though, but nice info
