Browser Keyboard Shortcut Basics

I was recently conducting a workshop on some of the methods and tools being described as part of this series and someone asked me how I was opening pages in new tabs. It made me realize that as we are so wedded to our browsers for many of the things I'm describing, I really should point out a few browser keyboard shortcuts that everyone should know:

Ctrl+T – new tab
Ctrl+click on a Link – open in new tab
Ctrl+Shift+click on a Link - open in new foreground tab
Shift+click on a Link - open in new window (use for videos you want to play on the side while you continue to surf)
Ctrl+Scroll wheel – larger/smaller font size
Ctrl+= : Increases font size.
Ctrl+- : Decreases font size.
Ctrl+F – Find
/ - Quick Find
Ctrl+G – Find again
Ctrl+Tab – Next tab
Ctrl+Shift+T - In Firefox, (re)opens the last tab that you closed
Ctrl+L : Gets you right up into the Address/URL bar.
F5 : Reload the page.
Ctrl+K : Takes you to the Firefox search box.
Ctrl+U : View the page’s source.

If you are not using any of these, go practice these and come back in a week and practice again.
