A really simple home page

I love when I see stuff on the web that does just what I want it to do. Fav4.org does.

Choose the four websites you want it to display (from a list of 20 or so), set it as your internet homepage, and you have a super-simple place to start your web browsing.

Beautiful!

Should I upgrade my web browser?

Yes.

There’s no simpler answer. Whether you’re using Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, Chrome or Opera; newer = safer and better in almost every case. When you computer asks you to upgrade your browser, say “Yes”.

Space Bar bliss

I don’t like to scroll while I read web pages, it’s too disorienting. Instead, when I get to the bottom of the screen I hit the spacebar to move down the page. Each tap does a quick scroll of the screen so that what was on the bottom of the screen becomes the top. It’s a simple way to read a long article on a web page without having to scroll all the time.

Wanna move back up the page? Just hit Shift+Spacebar (shift key and the spacebar) to move up a page the same way… backwards!
