A friend of mine had an idea for a USB device to extend a ‘.com’ button to the keyboard. This meant all the people typing ‘.com’ into address bars could save a few seconds and buy another silly gadget.
The dream has been shattered. Maybe you know this already, but most browsers already come with a keyboard shortcut for ‘.com’. Not only that, but ‘.net’ and ‘.org’ are also covered, as well as the ‘www’ prefix.
Type a word into the address bar, then hold down the Ctrl button and press enter…voila, the http://www and .com are magically appended…
Now, type a word and hold down the Shift button and press enter … voila, the .net extension is appended..
If you hold down Ctrl+Shift and press enter, the .org extension gets added..
I’ll break the news to him in the morning.
