* You can tap the Space bar to scroll down on a Web page one screenful. Add the Shift key to scroll back up.
* You don’t have to type “http://www” into your Web browser. Or the ".com" or other extension. Example, if you type in google in the address bar it goes straight to www.google.com
* When you’re filling in the boxes on a Web page (like City, State, Zip), you can press the Tab key to jump from box to box, rather than clicking. Add the Shift key to jump through the boxes backwards.
* You can enlarge the text on any Web page.On the Mac, it’s the Command key and plus or minus.
* When you’re searching for something on the Web using, say, Google, put quotes around phrases that must be searched together. For example, if you put quotes around “electric curtains,” Google won’t waste your time finding one set of Web pages containing the word “electric” and another set containing the word “curtains.”
*On the computer, * means “times” and / means “divided by.”
* You can switch from one open program to the next by pressing Command-Tab (Mac).
