I don't know where we are going.

Recently I tried to Google about some PLESK problem.  Google has a nice little feature to suggest you some of the common phrases other people searched, matching your search query know as Google Suggest.

I just typed in How to in search box and as usual Google presented me with list of common search phrases people are searching, and I GOT SHOCKED.

Result of How To – ( 6-Aug-2010 )

Now lets go in a bit detail :

1) World's biggest two problems today are, IMHO, population and corruption. AND Google shows me that majority of people wants to know “How to get pregnant”

.2) World is now so health conscious that 3 of the top search results are about reducing and gaining weight.

More analysis later.

This is today’s results ( 7-Aug-2010 ).

My almost all  web sites are hosted on goDaddy shared medium trust hosting.It is always painful to get things running on medium trust environment after got it running on your development environment.

But now you can set medium trust environment on your local machine and check every functionality there only.

You need to add following configuration in your web.config

<system.web>
    <trust level="Medium" />
</system.web>
Now you can test your application as if it is running under Medium Trust environment.

I spend almost half of my time working on browsers. So it is always important for me to make sure I can operate it as fast as possible. The best way to do any activity faster on computer is simply use Keyboard as much as possible.

So here I am listing few of the shortcuts I use most while operating in IE.

IE and Google Toolbar shortcuts :

Some of which I use most are

• Alt + D : Selects text in Address bar
• F4 : Address Bar ( Actually it opens Address bar history )
• F5 : Refresh
• Ctrl R : Refresh
• ESC : Stop loading page
• ESC : stops any animating gif ( I love this )
• F11 : View Full screen
• F6 : Move between Address Bar, Favorite Bar, and Browser window
• F12 : Developer Tools
• Ctrl T : New Tab
• Ctrl F : find 
• Ctrl N : Open current tab in new window
• Ctrl K : Clone currant Tab
• Alt V C : View Source
• Alt LeftArrow : Previous page ( Back button in browser history )
• Alt Right Arrow : Next Page
• Ctrl Q : Show thumbnail view
• Ctrl W : Close current Tab
• Ctrl E : Goto Browser quick search bar

If you have installed Google toolbar and want to reach its Search box, you can use shortcut below.

• Alt G : Google Search Bar

I have checked all above shortcuts with IE8 and IE 7 compatibility mode. All of them work very fine.
