Save yourself two or three steps

Too often I see computer users of all experiences taking too many steps to visit a web site. If they know a web site address, they first go to a search engine like Yahoo! or Google and type the address there. Then they click Search, wait for the results and click the site they want to visit.

Instead of going through all those steps, type known addresses in the long white address bar at the top of the screen and press the Enter (return) key on your keyboard. And don't forget to use favorite for frequently visited sites so you don't have to type at all. Search engines are for research not browsing.
