I only know maybe 4 of those *_* Oh and just for when you have Internet Explorer open. The interviewer is going to ask me to pretend my mouse is broken and explain how to open things in a new window or how to highlight and resize a window... they are going to basically randomly ask a few technical questions like that to make sure I know what I'm doing O_O... but I know it should only take a day or so for me to memorize those keys...
I think F4 is open or close or something. I forget...when I don't use the mouse, I always use the menu bar... alt-F for file, then you can hit the letter or use the arrow keys, all that. I'm sure you know that stuff, but it's probably not what they're looking for.
Sounds interesting! I'll have to look at it. I just need a new job in general. Broken Kid has a broken job.

lol yeah BrokenKid...I know how you feel. I have been searching all over town and still nothing, its hard when you don't have any experience like me. But mainly I really want this because I dont have a car right now...... plus its the computer which I am deff addicted to :p and I think it will be fun helping people with their questions and having someone new to talk to everyday. Thanks for those few helpfull things though O_O I've been practicing by not using my mouse at all *_* boy that is tough lol...

No problem! Glad I could help. I suspect there's a similar list for other programs, like Word... I use alt-arrow to go back or forward all the time, or F5 to refresh...but the alt-F or such to get to the menu bar across the top probably is a good fallback if you forget the other keys!

Morning Mystic!!
Good luck learning the keys!
My mouse died once and I HAD to navigate using the keyboard.. it was rough, but after a bit I was surprised to see I could actually do it. I'll bet by the end of today you'll have it!
** krig - if you're on later - the other day you were talking about Vegan cupcakes ... think you might be interested in this !!

oh wee thats a fun one with the back and forth button lol.... i have that on the sides of my mouse so i never thought to look for a shortcut on the keyboard O_O. I need a new keyboard too.... I tried doing Cntrl +F3 to open search and it didnt work till i pounded the key :/ ... but shhh I wont tell them that part lol....
Thanks for the incouragement gypsy
I also was teaching my mom some of them. My latin teacher back in highschool said that if you can teach someone else to do it while your learning you know that you got it!

It's better than being suspiciously absent!
In the Breeniverse, lonely is a badge of honor.
