Today’s quick tech tip….
The magic of Ctrl+F
Have you ever tried to find a specific word or phrase on a long web page that was loaded with what seemed like acres of text?
If so, you probably found the task both tedious and frustrating.
Well here’s a little tip you can use to quickly find exactly what you’re looking for…
With the page open in your your browser, just press the Ctrl+F key combination on your keyboard (or Command+F on a Mac) and a little search box will pop up.
Just type the word or phrase you’re looking for into that search box and press the Enter key.
