People were asking if my blog was broken as I haven’t posted lately – sorry, just been too busy!
Here’s a great blog to add to your subscriptions…. Windows Keyboard Shortcuts - impress your friends, save time, spurn your mouse… use Windows shortcuts. I try and use as many as I can, but I still learn new ones occasionally. This blog has a new tip every day on how you can improve your productivity using keyboard shortcuts.
Some of my favourite examples:
- Lock workstation – Windows+L
- Close window – Ctrl+W
- Close application – Alt+F4
- IE 7 Open new tab – Ctrl+T
- Start | Run – Windows+R
- Show desktop – Windows+D
By the way, got to play with Windows Vista yesterday for the first time – wasn’t blown away… it’s basically Windows XP with a Web 2.0 facelift and some desktop widgets. I only used it for 10-15 minutes, but found some stuff (like finding an open wireless network) more difficult and less intuitive than XP!
