Great tips, well presented. Definitely one to watch if you use Chrome or a Chrome-based browser. I would be very surprised if anyone watches this and doesn’t learn new ways to speed up their Internet use! I’d love to have more of these please.
Worth it just for the info on setting up shortcuts for search engines from the browser address bar – such a neat tool!
Very educational, Learned a ton of new shortcuts. Loved it. Love anything that saves me time. Hope there will be more conferences like this one.
Wow if only I had known!!! Thank you Richard for showing us all this amazing information. Of course I will have to watch the presentation again as it was fast paced and new to me.
Half of it was over my head. But I guess one has to start somewhere! I especially liked the list of Control + Letters for action items. I’ll play around with those…
Great to learn about all these ways to make the research PROCESS easier! It will take me awhile to try these tips. I like feeling that I have some control over how I use my computer. Thanks, Richard.
The content was explained very well, and I learned a lot from Richard about many of the different hacks you can use for Chrome-based browsers. I’m really looking forward to committing them to muscle memory!!
Really interesting to ‘look under the hood’ of Google Chrome and learn what else I can leverage for productivity in my daily use!
