But You're My Favorite!
I throw a little too much love towards Mozilla Firefox, so today I'm going to include some Internet Explorer goodness to try and balance stuff out. So, let's talk a little bit about favorites, shall we? Internet Explorer has something called the Favorites Center, where all of your most loved and cherished websites can be stored and accessed. Perhaps you knew about that already, eh? Great! That means that these Favorites Center shortcuts will add to your repertoire and your browsing prowess will be upgraded, indeed!
Give these a shot!
Ctrl + I – Open Favorites
Ctrl + Shift + I – Open Favorites in pinned mode
Ctrl + B – Organize Favorites
Ctrl + D – Add current page to Favorites
Ctrl + J – Open Feeds (For RSS Feeds)
Ctrl + Shift + J – Open Feeds in pinned mode
Ctrl + H – Open History
Ctrl + Shift + H – Open History in pinned mode
Enjoy It

TAB Key Options!
Multi-tab browsing in Firefox makes managing multiple web pages a breeze! Remember how Ctrl + T opens a new tab? Well, what about Ctrl+ Page Up and Ctrl+Page Down to switch between those tabs? Want to navigate between tabs even faster? Check these out:
Ctrl+1: Switch to the first tab
Ctrl+2: Switch to the second tab
Ctrl+3: Switch to the third tab
Ctrl+4: Switch to the fourth tab
Ctrl+5: Switch to the fifth tab
Ctrl+6: Switch to the sixth tab
Ctrl+7: Switch to the seventh tab
Ctrl+8: Switch to the eighth tab
Ctrl+9: Switch to the LAST tab
Even if you've got a ridiculous amount of tabs open, Ctrl+9 will always go to the farthest tab on the right.
But what about Ctrl+0? Well, because you can switch the size of the font with Ctrl+= or Ctrl+-, there needs to be a way to set it all back to defaults, right? That's where Ctrl+0 comes in. Use it to put the text in Firefox back to normal.
Wonderful!
