Easy way to increase font size of text on screen

[monarch]

All you have to do is hold down control key and roll the wheel on the mouse.

Did everyone already know this? I never did and I consider it life-changing info. I posted this in the lounge and it never got a single reply.

1. Specifically, this is only valid for web browsers...

...and Opera, which is now a free browser, also offers a zoom feature which allows you to shrink the whole webpage down, pictures and all.

Opera doesn't support Adblock and other Firefox enhancements (aka extensions) so I stopped using it, but the zoom feature is pretty darn neat.

the back arrow..takes you to precious page:)

3. In IE

you can type a word in the address box and hit ctrl+enter, and it will automatically add the "http://www" + ".com"

Ever since they redid my system the font size was so tiny I could barely read it.
