Power Web Surfing Tip: Eliminate Clicks With F6

Function

Function

When you decide you don’t like us anymore and need to surf elsewhere. (Noooooo…) There’s no need to single, double or triple click in the url bar before you start typing in the web address of your next destination. Just hit “F6″ on your keyboard and it’s auto-highlighted for you. Go ahead, do it. Do it right now. And then leave. (I knew you would eventually.)

  1. Also Alt+D…

    Or Ctrl+E for the search box.

    Not that I’d ever try to leave, though that’s how I found you in the first place.

  2. command-l or ctr-l works in firefox also.

    I like to avoid the function keys because it pulls my hands off the home row on the keyboard.

  3. Thanks for the extra tips, guys. The command-L was a new one for me.
