YouTube shortcuts

Merry day-after-Christmas!  I hope you had a special day yesterday with family and friends.

So, if you happen to be using YouTube today to learn how to use one of your new gifts or fix something that got broken during the holiday, these YouTube shortcuts might come in handy:

Use the Space or K key to pause the video.

J and L will go backward/forward 10 seconds at a time

M will mute.

Super handy!

Want a new smartphone?

Is your smartphone battery running out before the end of the day?  Is it slow to react to your touch?  Are you wanting to take better photos? 

Then you may want to check out these articles before deciding which phone is best "for you."

iPhones

Androids

Don't own a smartphone and wanting to know more about your choices

Merry Christmas!  Maybe Santa will leave one of these devices in your stocking?!  :-)

Oops! Undo

Have you ever accidentally closed a tab while you were browsing on the internet?  To reopen the most recently closed tab and get back to what you were doing: 
On a Windows computer, simply press Ctrl + Shift + T
On a Mac computer, press Cmd (Command) + Shift + T 
Another "undo" key combination to remember in case you accidentally erase words in your email or document as you are writing it:
Windows - CTRL + Z
Macs - Cmd (Command) + Z
These keyboard shortcuts have been timesavers for me the past couple of weeks when I've been shopping online!

Microfiber - the perfect cleaning cloth!

Looking for a perfect stocking stuffer for everyone on your list? Check out these microfiber cloths! These are wonderful for cleaning screens of computers, phones, tablets, TVs, eyeglasses....the list goes on and on.

I always carry one of these Fuzzy Fingers in my purse and pull it out whenever my phone screen or iPad becomes so smudged I can't stand it any longer. It does an amazing job!

Although the above links are for online venues, you might be able to find something similar at WalMart or Target.  

Happy holiday shopping!
