These browser-keyboard-mouse techniques made my computer skills better from a student to an IT professional and somehow got me writing cool PC stuffs and how-to.
I was using these methods since Google Chrome was released way back. So I thought I would share this to you too. If you already know these, I hope at least in one point, a new knowledge may benefit you.
1. Using URL to QRCode in Browser as Plugin. This helps you to scan the URL via QRcode generated using your smartphone or tablet to open instead of typing a bunch of gibberish URLs.
2. Using Incognito mode or Private browsing (CTRL + SHIFT + n) to test or login a different account at the same time. This can also serve as browsing invisibly to protect you from account theft in public places. Just to remind, you can't find any history on this mode.
3. Using filters in Gmail or Yahoo to prevent having 10,000+ emails on your inbox.
4. Using Cloud drives such as Dropbox, GDrive or Onedrive to easily attach, share, and keep small to large files without worrying you disk space and having USB drives or even email attachment limitations. Most of all, you are worry free to lose everything. Create now by clicking on the links above.
5. Using these cool mouse and keyboard shortcuts on your Google chrome.
- Use middle key (scroll key) on your mouse to close the selected tab.
- Use also the scroll key to close a selected window tab.
- Use CTRL + T to open new tab.
- Use CTRL + W to close current tab
- Toogle between tabs by CTRL + {1,2,3,4,0(as last)}
- CTRL + SHIFT + W to close all tabs
- CTRL + SHIFT + T to open previously closed tab.
- Use scroll key to a link to open to a new tab.
6. View your browsing history anywhere by going to http://google.com/history
7. Understand that the use of SHIFT is to reverse (or to go back) most of the keyboard commands. Try CTRL + TAB, vs CTRL + SHIFT + TAB. See the difference.
8. Use WINDOW + "+" to use magnifying glass to view details of page, Window + Esc to quit. This is also helpful in presentation like Powerpoint to zoom small images.
9. Or just use CTRL + "+"/"-" to increase/decrease font sizes or adjust page size. CTRL + 0 to revert back to normal size.
10. Highlight a text or group of texts and click+drag it to the top bar to let google search for it.
Simple right?
