Re: Tired of typing the full URL (http://www.domain.com)

This is an excellent tip that I've used for years and show people all the time. I'm surprised more people aren't aware of this, Laughing . Also, if you do a Shift + Enter instead, it'll fill in the www. + .net instead of .com, and CTRL+Shift with do a .org. Smile

Easy shortcut reference chart:

Just type any word in the URL bar, and then press

CTRL + Enter = .com
CTRL + Shift = .org
Shift + Enter = .net

Shhh.. dont tell anyone, but we also have a private forum area with the really good stuff, wanna see?
