BioTecK.NET Shortcut In FireFox

Posted By: Tuesday 24 June 2008 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.

    sailors last blog post..Just how mobile is your site?

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

    2 Sailor:
    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.

  6. Cool tips!

    Just wondering, what captcha do you use on your blog? Mind you share?

  10. I have this version and is working just fine. Thanks for the tips though.

  11. Seems like you are familiar with this version of Firefox 3, any advice about it? Do youi recommend Google Chrome? :?:

  12. BioTecK says:

    This version is working just fine indeed Mac @ Motorcycle Fairing! :D

    Jep, I’m familiar with FireFox 3 and I love it Outdoor Furniture. What do you want to know? let me know if you want to know something.. :D
    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:

  13. Never switch to Chrome, it sucks and has no aplications to use. :sad:

  14. BioTecK says:

    Well, I have only tested Chrome but as I love Firefox, I don’t know if I’m ever going to switch to Chrome wrap around sunglasses!
