- You can skip typing 'www.' and '.com' in the address bar if you press Ctrl and Enter together. Found out in Chrome but checked and it works in Firefox, IE7 and Safari.

- Music producer and songwriter Felix Howard (who wrote, among other things, Stronger for the Sugababes) was the child dancer in Madonna's 'Open Your Heart' video.
- If you copy some text and paste it into a folder, Windows will create a 'Scrap Object'. I accidentally found out at work using XP, then tried it at home but the paste option does not seem to be available on Vista Home Premium.
