Tom’s Tuesday Tech Tip: Keep Your Tabs Open (or at Least Re-Opened)

I’ve already given you a Tech Tip on how to use tabbed browsing to enhance your legal nurse consulting research. I’ve also Tech Tipped on how to recover your work in your web browser in the event that you accidentally close it out. Today’s tip works in Firefox, Chrome and wonder of wonders, in Internet Explorer 8. If you accidentally close a tab, before you shout Holy Tech Tip Tom! Simply hold down your Control button, your Shift button and hit the T (for Tom) key. Each time you give your computer the T salute it’ll open up the last tab you closed in your web browser. If you’re a Safari user, you can only re-open the last tab you closed, but at least it’s a simpler salute z (for Ziemba).

Tom’s Tuesday Tech Tip: Time to Keep Your Options and Your Tabs Open in Your Legal Nurse Consulting Business

The Internet is an indispensable tool for Certified Legal Nurse Consultants to research their legal nurse consulting work product. Web browsers are getting better and faster than ever. No matter which browser I’m using, I like to use tabbed browsing and am always opening links in a new tab. This practice keeps me from losing my search results by following links too far forward and not being able to get back to my original search results.

Tom’s Tuesday Tech Tip: Make Sure Your Data Is Opening with the Right Program

The more you use your computer in your legal nurse consulting business, the higher the chance that one of your data types will become associated with a program other than the one you want to use to open it. What I mean by this is that your songs may start opening with Windows Media Player instead of your trusty iTunes. Your legal nurse consulting reports created in Word might start opening in Wordpad or your photos may open with some editor you downloaded from the Web instead of Photoshop Elements or Microsoft Office Picture Manager.

Tom’s Tuesday Tech Tip: Trust Your Web Browser with the Web of Trust (WOT)

One thing I know for sure about Certified Legal Nurse Consultants is that they all use different web browsers and different versions of those browsers. I like to keep up to date in my software and have blogged on the importance of updating the software on your legal nurse consulting business and home computers using automatic settings where possible. But once you’re a CLNC consultant out on the information superhighway doing research for an attorney-client, how do you know which websites are safe and which are insidious purveyors of malware? You don’t. Not, at least without some outside help.
