BioTecK.NET Shortcut In FireFox

Posted By: BioTecK on Tuesday 24 June 2008 with 14 Comments

If you’re using FireFox and you want to visit my site, you can actually use a shortcut! A shortcut for BioTecK.net? Jep, just type bioteck in the address bar of FireFox and hit Shift+Enter. You’ll see that FireFox takes you directly to this blog! Cool isn’t it?! :mrgreen:

What’s the secret? Well I have made a special deal with FireFox.. :wink: No, just kidding! To be honest there’s no secret! It’s just a standard feature in FireFox and it can be used to go directly to a .net, .com or .org domain name.

How to use it? Well, it’s simple. Just type the domain name and hit the shortcuts for the domain name:

  • For a .net domain name: Shift+Enter
  • For a .com domain name: Ctrl+Enter
  • For a .org domain name: Ctrl+Shift+enter

Firefox 3

    One is never too old to learn. I have just tested this in Flock, it works there as well. This is however to be expected as they are both Mozilla browsers.

    It goes a bit further than this. I have a site with a .za.net address. If I type in sitename.za and then Shift+Enter I get taken to the correct place – cool.

    Thanks for the tip.

    Jep, you’re never too old to learn new stuff! ;)

    Didn’t knew that it worked in Flock too.
    I also didn’t knew that the combination of Shift+Enter worked for .za domain names.

    About Google Chrome.. I have test it but as long as its beta I’m going to use FireFox, in fact I don’t know if I’m ever going to switch to Chrome. I just love FireFox! :wink:
