This is for easier and faster(not much faster) typing of adresses... I know this is an old trick and many of you probably already know this but I thought i would share it anyways

when typing in a site in the adress bar i found the following commands very usefull:

Ctrl + Enter - after typing the keyword website ( so if i wanted to go to google i would right google and with my mouse still in the adress bar would click Ctrl +enter) and this will at the www. and the .com and will obviously press the enter for you :thumbsup:

Shift+ Enter- this will do the same as above but will add a .net

Ctrl+ Shift+ Enter- this will bring up an .org

Hope it helps..

I guess he meant the cursor and not the mouse at the address bar.

How exactly is it done again? Do you need to have Internet Explorer or Firefox of Opera? After typing google in IE and pressing ctrl enter it will go to www.google.com, but I was unable to use the shift + enter or ctrl + shift enter key short cuts.
