2. Open a New Tab

Want to open a new tab in a flash? Just tap Ctrl-T. I find this especially useful when I've selected some text or a URL; I hit Ctrl-C to copy it, Ctrl-T to open a new tab, Ctrl-V to paste, and finally Enter to make it go.

That may sound like a lot of keystrokes, but they run together very quickly -- and they're way faster than clicking with the mouse.

3. Jump to the Top or Bottom of a Web Page

Borrowing from word processors, Web browsers use Home and End to jump to the top and bottom of a Web page. The only difference: no Ctrl key required.
