Speedsurfing Tip #2
#2 - Ctrl+Click or Ctrl+Enter
This opens up a new window behind the exisiting window (and in IE7, FF and OP, opening a new tab behind the window). If you liked Shift+Click, you will definitely love Ctrl+Click. The full power of this function is revealed when you want to browse a full listing of, for example, the first twenty returns on Google.
Do a Ctrl+Click on all the twenty by holding down the Ctrl button and clicking in rapid succession down the list. You’ll see them opening up behind the current tab (i.e. located in the same window). This saves time waiting for pages to load only after you click them. With all the links open, you can then browse swiftly across the tabs, closing those you don’t want.
Enter something into the Google custom search engine on the left and then blitz away! (you’ll remain on this page)
If you happen to be using IE6 and below, you will need to upgrade or switch browsers to try this out. Between IE7 and Firefox2, I’d recommend the latter as it’s generally faster and more secure but try both out and see.
Browsers:
- Internet Explorer 7.0: Ctrl+Click (new rear tab)
- Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl+Click (new rear tab)
- Opera: Ctrl+Shift+Click (new rear tab)
