Tab
the Space
Here's a fun little
quick tip for you! Do you often sign up for certain things online? You
know, anything that requires you to choose a username and password or
even fill in some of your personal information (name, address, phone number,
etc.?) Well, when you're filling out those forms, do you have to use your
mouse to go through most of it? Don't you get tired of going back and
forth between your keyboard and your mouse? I know I do!
Well, today, I'm here
to show you a trick that will change that forever. All you have to do
is use the Tab key and the Spacebar
on your keyboard. When you're filling out a form that asks for your name,
address, etc., you can use the Tab key to go from one line to the next.
For example, if you're done filling in your name, hit the Tab key and
your mouse cursor will automatically go down to the next line, which is
probably where your address goes. You can do that throughout the whole
form.
Now, do you ever come
across something that requires you to checkmark some of those little boxes?
For instance, when a form asks you if you're male or female or how about
when you're changing the settings in your Web browser or e-mail program.
Whenever you have to check a box, just hit the Spacebar. If you want to
uncheck a box, hit the Spacebar again. It's that easy. With the Tab and
Spacebar keys, you can fly through any form you have to fill out or any
settings you have to set. Sounds good to me! How about you? Now, go give
it a try!
