Google Chrome - Some new features that you might enjoy

-



Google is continuously updating the Chrome browser, and new features appear all the time, sometimes without notice.

Some of the most recent features have the potential to save you a lot of time and make your web adventures even more enjoyable, but unless you're a detail-obsessed tech-savy who keeps track of activities related to Information Technology, it's almost impossible to know when something fresh and worthwhile worms its way in.

Anyway here are the features to look at:


Link to Text Fragment
You can use this feature to create a custom link to any section of text on a web page. You can then send the link to someone and they will be directed to the exact section of text you want them to see, rather than the whole page.

For example, you can highlight text on any web page and then right-click to find a nifty new option for creating a connection to a specific section of text within a web page and then sending it to someone else.

Android Page Peeking Panel
This is a Chrome feature that is only available on Android, and it is a huge time saver.
It's essentially a special panel that allows you to peek at a link within another web page without having to switch tabs and abandon your current task. Simply press and hold the link in question, then pick "Preview page" from the pop-up menu to see the page in seconds.


The Swift Tab Search Shortcut
This one is just for the laptop edition, so if you use Chrome on a machine at all, you should certainly remember to use it. It's a simple way to scan all of your open tabs in Chrome and then move to any tab you want, regardless of which browser, computer, or even desktop you're using.

Simply press Ctrl-Shift-A (or -Shift-A on Macs) and a new panel will appear in the upper-right corner of Chrome, with a scrolling list of your open tabs.

You can then start typing the name of every open tab, and the list will narrow down to only display the results that fit. Once you've found the tab you want, simply press Enter to open it.


The Custom Window Namer
For the time being, this feature is only available on the desktop edition. It's an option to offer every Chrome window you have open its own custom name, which means you'll see the window's name in your taskbar or app-switching interface instead of the title of the currently active tab.

This function is can be very useful. If you work with a lot of tabs open through several windows, like I do — with or without whistling thrown in for good measure — naming those windows makes it far easier to keep track of what's going on where.

You can namne first window "News", and second window "Technology" and so on.

Right-click (or two-finger click on a touch screen) in the open area at the top of a Chrome window — not where you see the actual tab names, but immediately to the right of that, in the open area between the plus sign and all that other stuff — to use this function. You should see a choice called "Name window" in the pop-up menu.

See if above features can make your use of  Google Chrome more productive and enjoyable.

Healthy Life Style

You'll probably get 50 different definitions of what a "healthy lifestyle" is if you ask 50 people to describe it. That's because there are numerous approaches to good health. Living a healthy lifestyle is as simple as doing things that bring you joy and satisfaction. On one person, that might entail going for a mile-long walk five times per week, consuming fast food only once per week, and spending every other day either virtually or physically with loved ones. Others may define a healthy lifestyle as preparing for and competing in two marathons annually, adhering to a ketogenic diet, and abstaining from all alcoholic beverages. One of them is not superior to the other. Both fit that individual perfectly. What constitutes a healthy lifestyle is entirely up to you. You undoubtedly know when your health isn't at its best. Possibly all you feel is "off." You might notice that you're run down, that your digestion isn't working as effectively as it u...

In both our personal and professional lives, we use the internet. We use websites to look for new gadgets, research subjects, and keep up with the latest news. The Internet has become an integral part of our daily lives. Potential attackers aren't just looking for the big fish in the markets. They are indiscriminate, casting a large net in order to benefit from even small bits of information. Please bear in mind that even though you strictly follow the steps outlined below, potential attackers will still be able to gain access to your device. As a result, I highly advise using a good antivirus/malware program with real-time security to stop and/or delete any malicious software before it can cause havoc. REMEMBER : The secret to secure Internet browsing is to combine strong security with proper knowledge. SAFE WEBSITES STARTING WITH HTTPS:// ARE THE BEST TO USE Internet addresses that begin with https:// and have a padlock on the web browser send and receive data over the Inter...
