If you accidentally close a page that's open on a Firefox tab, you can go back in time to get that just-closed tab back by pressing "Ctrl + Shift +T". On the Mac version, press "Command + Shift + T".
Firefox is full of keyboard shortcuts (www.snipurl.com/4825n) that are handy for faster browsing. For example, pressing "Ctrl +T" makes a new tab and "Ctrl + W" closes the current tab. (Again, substitute the Command key on a Mac.)
You can also open a freshly pasted URL in the Firefox address bar in a new tabby pressing the "Alt and Enter" keys in Windows, or by pressing the "Option and Return" keys on a Mac.

别小看洗米水
以前又听说过洗米水可以用来洗脸,有美白作用.
前天看到一则关于洗米水的用途的报道,原来洗米水真的有很多的用途耶.
前天看到一则关于洗米水的用途的报道,原来洗米水真的有很多的用途耶.
- 原来在晚上临睡前洗干净整张脸后,再用洗米水来擦脸(可以用一条小毛巾).这样可以去黄气、去过多的油脂分泌,去暗疮和酒米.天天用,面就透出光泽且更加滑净了.
- 我妈也喜欢用它来浇花、浇菜,说是有花肥、菜肥的作用.
- 此外,可以用来洗菜,不但洗得干净,还可以更有效的去除菜叶上残留的农药,令家人吃得更安全更放心.
- 洗米水还可以用来洗衣服呢!把脏衣物放入洗米水中浸泡十分钟左右,再用洗衣肥皂洗涤,洗出来的衣服即清洁又干净.特别是白色的衣服,更见效,比使用一般的洗衣粉来得更洁白呢!(报道说信不信由你勒!我会找机会试试看.)
- 在炎热天多汗的日子里,擦汗多了的毛巾会出现臭汗味;同时毛巾表面变得又硬又扎手.这个时候,最好用洗米水来对付这条脏毛巾,方法是,连同洗米水一起煮十分钟.毛巾即使会恢复原状,变得柔软如初,又滑又清香又干净.

生活小秘方
轟！辣到流眼淚該怎麼辦？
如果不小心吃到辣的、流眼淚的食物，這時的第一個想法一定是，我要一杯水。然而水並不能解辣，反而會更辣。其實最好的解辣方法就是喝牛奶。牛奶才是最好的解辣劑。喝了就可以緩和辣感
讓豆腐不易變碎
軟綿綿的豆腐在烹調過程中非常容易破碎， 如果想要豆腐保持完整，可以在煮之前先浸泡在鹽水中，大約30分鐘左右，泡過鹽水的豆腐下鍋之後就不容易破碎囉！
湯太鹹了，怎麼辦？
煮湯時如果不小心加了太多鹽，那湯的微妙口感就被破壞掉了。這時補救的方法是，加入馬鈴薯塊在煮個幾分鐘。因為馬鈴薯會吸收鹽分，要上桌時再把馬鈴薯撈掉，就可以解決湯太鹹的狀況
削芋頭前先泡醋
削芋頭時，手部會因為芋頭的關係而愈削愈癢，此時不妨先將手浸泡在醋中，這樣一來，手就不癢囉！
如何將蘋果去除表面的蠟
如果您喜歡吃蘋果，然後又常常吃，然後又喜歡連皮一起吃的話，那麼就需要將表面的蠟去除囉…
(1) 將蘋果放進熱水(手可以接受的最高溫度即可)，這時候蘋果的蠟會暈開。
(2) 牙膏塗抹在蘋果上當清潔劑，如此即可消除。
如何讓馬鈴薯慢一點發芽？
馬鈴薯的芽含有毒的生物鹼，食用會造成腹痛、頭暈。若再馬鈴薯中放一顆蘋果，可大為延遲發芽的時間。因蘋果產生的乙烯氣體有妨礙馬鈴薯發育的功效。想讓木瓜或奇異果早點熟，就可以和蘋果放一起。另外澀柿子和蘋果放一起，一週後澀味消失了就變甜柿了。
如何讓飯又Q又香
洗完米之後,在水裡加入幾滴濘濛汁,可以讓飯Q又香。
在洗好準備開始煮的米飯裡滴上幾滴油，與飯同煮，也能讓米飯香 Q 喔！
想讓餅乾一直脆脆的？
將餅乾裝罐時，同時放進一塊方糖。由於方糖會吸收罐中的濕氣，所以就能保持餅乾的香脆可口的狀態了。
慘了！衣服沾到墨水有救嗎？
衣服或布料不小心沾到墨水時，可以使用飯粒或是漿糊加些許的清潔劑，用手指頭直接沾著在墨水的污垢處反覆塗抹，墨水的污垢很快的就可以清除掉囉！待污垢去除了之後，再將衣物浸泡在一般的清潔劑中一段時間再清洗。
鞋子臭臭怎麼辦？
將少量蘇打粉直接撤入長筒靴、運動鞋，或常穿而易有異味、溼氣的鞋中，在蘇打粉作用之下，它會吸收溼氣及異味，很快你就會有一雙乾爽的鞋子了
衣服衣領、腋下黃黃怎麼辦？
先用刷子塗上洗髮精，或擦上刮鬍膏後靜置四之五分鐘再洗，即可順利洗淨
鮮花保鮮法
在插著鮮花的花瓶裡，加進一點啤酒可使鮮花的保鮮期延長許多，因啤酒含有乙醇，能使花枝切口，消毒防腐，又含有糖及其它營養物質，能為枝葉提供養份
使剪刀恢復銳利的方法
利用鋁箔紙，將二、三張鋁箔紙疊在一起，用剪刀剪一剪，剪刀立刻就會銳利的令人吃驚
吹風機輕鬆去標籤
買禮盒送人時，價錢標籤很難撕掉，用手摳會摳的黑黑髒髒的反而更難看，如果用吹風機吹熱一下再撕，會很輕鬆的撕下來，不留一點痕跡！
啤酒除了喝還可以？
牛奶擦拭觀葉植物很不錯，其實，用剩下的啤酒來擦拭，效果更好！而且不怕招惹螞蟻,可用棉花沾啤酒,輕拭葉面,不僅灰塵, 連長年污垢也能輕易去除，葉面留下自然光澤。
不用芳香劑也讓家裡變香香
可利用自己的香水以棉花沾濕香水後，擦拭室內的電燈泡，燈泡一亮，香水就會溫熱發揮，整個房間就會充滿香氣了。
木製家具被蠟筆亂塗鴉
蠟筆污跡無法以水去除，用油漆溶劑雖可去除，但會剝去塗料而使表面受損，最適合的方法適用牙膏擦拭。不僅可擦的很乾淨，且也不會傷到傢俱。
廚房拖地先放醋
廚房的地板很容易積屯油垢，拖地前，不彷在拖把上倒入一些醋，如此就能讓油污逃之夭夭
茶杯上有茶垢怎麼辦？
茶 垢在茶杯上影響杯子ㄉ美觀,用絲瓜布(化工)日久又傷痕累累,反倒藏污納垢. 祇要用一點點ㄉ牙膏,輕鬆ㄉ抹上.用手清洗就可去茶杯上ㄉ茶垢. 若是茶垢很厚,就抹上等一下,有空再回來清洗.相信你會有一隻新杯子 。
地板掃得更乾淨
將破掉不用的絲襪套在掃帚上做清潔的工作，可將棉絮、頭髮等難掃的東西，全部掃乾淨。

Help!!! I can't find my Blog on Web browsers!!!
The search engines don't index your blog automatically - you have to
give them reason to index it.
Besides friends and family, your initial readers will come through the
"Next Blog" link, randomly. You get more "Next Blog" traffic from
posting more, less from posting less. And, you'll need this initial
traffic.
http://blogging.nitecruzr.net/2008/01/more-traffic-to-our-blogs.html
Most long term readers will initially find your blog through search
engine hits. You have to get the search engines involved, but you
won't get listed by them, automatically. You have to do some work,
let them know that you're there, that you want to be listed, and that
you are worthy of being listed.
1) Get your friends to link to your blog, where your blog is relevant.
2) Participate in forums, where your blog is relevant, and include the
URL.
3) Comment on other blogs, in relevant comments, and include the URL.
4) Put relevant and useful content in your blog.
5) Some search engines may index your blog using the site feed. Be
sure to activate the feed.
6) When you have done all of the above, your blog will have some
weight. Submit your blog to the search engines, for indexing.
7) Post frequently, and keep the content of your blog moving.
http://groups.google.com/group/blogger-help/web/how-to-get-traffic-and-repeated-readers-for-your-blog
Remember though, none of this happens overnight. Search engines can
take months to index your blog fully. And even when indexed, don't
expect for a search to some key element in your blog to give you an
entry on the first page of the search hits. And remember that owners
of other blogs, like yours, are actively working to be included by
Google too. Try to ignore the troll who babbles about SEO.

Today's Tips
Just read from nowspaper about this :-
Retrieve Closed Tabs
It has happened to all of us before -- accidentally closing a tab of a webpage when we didn't intend to.
A little-known keyboard shortcut was discovered for Firefox that allows us to reopen tabs we've accidentally closed.
Hitting "Ctrl + Shift + T" will reopen your last closed tab and hitting it again will open the one before that and so on.
