I love keyboard shortcuts! Anytime I can use CTRL-C to copy something and CTRL-V to paste it, I am a happy camper. I just came across two articles by David Pogue of the NY Times where he shared some technology (gadgets included!) shortcuts.
The first Ins and Outs of Using Technology and the second 25 More Tech Tips and Tricks are gems!
While I like to think I know a lot of shortcuts, I always seem to find one I didn't know about. Such as ALT-D, which allows the curser to jump straight to the URL bar. (no need to move my hand off the keyboard and touch the mouse!) There are some tips/tricks for just the PC and some just for Macs.
His second article has some great tips on avoiding being part of a scam. If you get an email with a deal that seem too good to be true "first check it out at Snopes.com, the world clearinghouse for Internet scams and rumors." (copy/paste URL in top right search box) I have used that site many times.
I am sure you will find at least ONE new thing in either of the articles. Post a comment if you want to share ...
