What new keyboard shortcuts have you learned? This is what I've learned and have been using lately.
CTRL + SHIFT + TAB as a reverse tab. It's kinda slow, and when you have more than 9 tabs it's pretty useful, when you cant do CTRL + # if you have 9.
CTRL + BACKSPACE for deleting 'words' or 'strings of text'. Type "one two three", hold CTRL and then BACKSPACE it will delete the string backwards, so you'd need to press it 3 times to erase all of those. (This is pretty useful if you're coding.. and have something long and messed up.. or renaming stuff from pasted links/URIs)
CTRL + SHIFT + LEFT/RIGHT ARROW will move around strings of text.. this is very useful
ALT + First letter of menu .. ex ALT + F for File, etc. Yeah this is old but I hadn't relied upon it as much.
Mouse scroll bar on a link to open it in a new tab (Firefox + Logitech mouse, dunno bout rest)
ALT + Mouse scroll down/up will go up/down by line.
Well, these are what I've been using lately. If anyone has a shortcut for going up one level when you press Open a file, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. Or if you have a short way of doing a reverse tab.
