Ctrl + Enter---- To add .com to an address(e.g just type yahoo in the address bar and Ctrl + Enter). Very useful.

If and when you reply this thread, you would either click the submit button or use the Alt+s shortcut.

But if you are like me and you use Opera, Alt+s wont work for you. Instead it would bring down your feeds menu.

What are the shortcuts for Nairaland on Opera that work with other brrowsers eg firefox and IE?

Thanks.
