Speed Dial For Browser

Chrome's Speed Dial

Speed Dial is a concept used in mobile phone to make a call very quickly. Similarly we have speed dial for browser. In a browser, speed dial used to access our favorite sites quickly. 

Speed Dial is more or less similar to Bookmark (Favorites in Internet Explorer) concept. But there are some differences and additional features exist in Speed Dial.

Firefox's Speed Dial

Phone Speed Dial Vs Browser Speed Dial

In phone speed dial we have to press and hold number key to make a call. In browser speed dial we have two options to access our favorite site. Press Ctrl + Number  Click on Speed Dial  In a mobile phone we can set speed dial just for 9 numbers(1-9) whereas in browser's speed dial there is no such restriction.

Bookmark Vs Speed Dial

Liceneed from DiscoverySchool.com Bookmark is a inbuilt browser property. On other hand Speed Dial is a browser extension. Both bookmark and speed dial offer quick access to our favorite sites. Bookmark does not provide keyboard shortcut whereas speed dial offers shortcut. Ctrl + Number is the shortcut key used in speed dial.

Good Bye To Bookmark Tool Bar:

Earlier I used Bookmark Tool Bar. It occupies some space on my screen. So I said good bye to Bookmark Tool Bar. Now I use Speed Dial as an alternative for Bookmark Tool Bar.

My Student Decoded Google's New Year Logo

Thomas

Thomas is doing first year MCA in our college. Now he is in second semester. In his first semester most of time he lost attendance for first hour. 

He used to come 10 or 15 minutes late to college. But now Thomas is the first person to decode Google's New Year Logo.

Yesterday at 11.05AM Thomas came to my table. He told that I would like to share one thing to you. He asked me to open Google home page. 

I asked Thomas what is there in Google home age. He showed Google's logo and asked me what is the meaning of this logo. 

I took few seconds to think about that. At the end I said to Thomas, I don't know what it means. But Thomas said...

First we remove first character "G" and last character "E" from GMMXIE. We consider MMXI only. 

M means 1000 in Roman letter. So there are two M is there. It means 2000.

X and I means 10 and 1.

So Google logo represents 2011. 

As usual first and last character G and E represents Google's First and Last character.

Whether Thomas Copied?

No, Thomas did not copy from anywhere. He decoded within 30 minutes of Google's release. Even at that point of time there was no explanation in Internet. This is Thomas original Decoding.
