We spend a good amount of time on our computers and mobiles in fact most of our day is spent on these devices. Today I want to share a few simple tips that can save you a lot of time and take away a lot of frustrations while working.

Just imagine how many times we use ctrl+c (copy) and ctrl+v (paste) it’s such an important feature that we use all the time but the problem with ctrl+c and ctrl+v is it just saves one copy. what if we want to copy something which we copied some time back for that we must again select that text and use copy option

I want to start with my personal favorite way:

One: ) clipboard Application

There is a fantastic tool called Ditto it’s a clipboard application It saves each item placed on the clipboard allowing you access to any of those items at a later time. Ditto allows you to save any type of information that can be put on the clipboard, text, images, HTML, custom formats. and it will save you a lot of time

Download link for ditto: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/ditto-clipboard/9nblggh3zbjq?activetab=pivot%3Aoverviewtab

This is how it looks, it saves all the copy that you have done

After downloading go to options and set Maximum Number of saved Copies and Paste Entries Expire after as shown in the screen shot

Two:) Open a tab which you closed accidently

Windows : ctrl + Shift + T
Mac : Command + Shift +T

Three:) Save a web page as a PDF

If you want to save any webpage as PDF then this option will be very beneficial for you.
Chrome browser has this feature, open any webpage in chrome and if you want to save that page press ctrl+P

Six :) Send email using Facebook

Suppose you want to send an email to someone but you don’t have their email id, in this case if you have someone’s username then you can send an email to username@facebook.com

Facebook will send an email to the email address linked to user’s account

Seven :) Archieve.org: http://web.archive.org

This is a fantastic website to see how a site looked like 10 years ago or suppose you made changes to your website page and you want to see how it looked before. you can go to this site and see how it looked before the changes were made.

Eight : Pin to taskbar and Book marking a website, Alt+Tab to switch between applications and windows + L to lock your computer
