When typing in and filling
out an online form, use the "tab" key to
take your curser to the next line in the
form. Easier than taking your fingers off
the keyboard and using the mouse to go to
the next blank line.

Telephone
trick - If you call someone you know,
and want to skip the "please leave a message"
recording, hit the pound key ( # ) on the
phone, and you will go directly to the
beep. This works for most land line voice
mail systems (Qwest), and many businesses.
Does NOT work for personal answering
machines, or cell phone voice mail.
