If you get an error message while using a program you may find it really useful to copy the error message word-for-word into the clipboard, then paste the error message into Google. You might be surprised to find out how many people have had to deal with the exact error and have solved the problem.
It's amazing how many seemingly esoteric topics have been indexed by Google. There are of course other search engines that do a good job of locating information about software error messages, but Google seems to work best. |

Double-Click Words Instead of click-dragging across the letters in a word to select a word, try double-clicking on the word. This can save a lot of repetitive hand and wrist movement that may lead to carpal tunnel syndrome. Double-clicking a word is also much faster and more accurate than click-dragging. Selecting the Entire URL in a Web Browser The easiest way to select all of the text in a URL is to simply click the favicon. (The favicon is the little picture that appears to the left of a URL in a browser.) Once the text is selected, save yourself some time and just start typing the new URL. The selected text will be replaced with what you type and this will save you the unnecessary step of having to explicitly delete the text before typing new text in its place. |
