His address bar Chrome it seems to be a regular line of addresses at first glance. Its use is simple, you type a URL and take you to the web page. But it can do many more things if you know how to use it.
Let's look at some of the secrets of the Chrome address bar.
Unit Conversion and Mathematics
Forget the Windows calculator, or your operating system, simply type the equation in the Chrome Address bar and get the answer right away without even having to press Enter. You can do the same to convert units, like let's say temperatures from C to F. All you need to do is add an equal after the unit you want to convert. So the type of search is something like
50 c = f
for temperatures, or
50 feet = inches
.
Make your Notebook browser
This trick works in almost any modern browser. If you want to have a blank notebook that you use as a draft while browsing, type the following text in the address bar. You can add it to your bookmarks.
Search for keywords with Drag and Drop
If you are not a fan of copying and pasting or you hate right-clicking, you can search for a word by highlighting it (highligh) and then Drag and Drop it in the address bar.
Search for Special Websites
Google veterans are quite familiar with the search that contained the term "site:" You can also use it from the address bar simply by typing the address of a web page, and then pressing the Tab key. That is
site: amazon.com smartphones
Search Gmail or Google Drive
Let's go to services like Gmail or Google Drive. Searches in these services are much easier than the address bar. To do this, you will need to prepare your browser.
Right-click on the address bar and select "Edit Search Engines" or "Edit Search Engines"
Add a new search engine called Google Drive
Name her in one word-key that you will remember, like “GDrive”
Enter the following URL at:
http://drive.google.com/?hl=en&tab=bo#search/%s
You can do the same for Gmail, just the URL changes to
https://mail.google.com/mail/ca/u/0/#apps/%s
When you want to search for your Google Drive or Gmail accounts, simply type gmail.com or docs.google.com and press Tab to begin your search. You can do a similar trick to add something to your Google Calendar.
Use the address bar as File Explorer
Type C: / in Windows or file: // localhost on Mac and Linux to open your disc from your browser. You can also transfer any file to the address bar and open it in Chrome.
Open a new email window
Θέλετε να στείλετε γρήγορα ένα message ηλεκτρονικού ταχυδρομείου, αλλά δεν θέλετε να ανοίξετε το email σας; Μπορείτε από τη γραμμή διευθύνσεων του Chrome. Type mailto: in your address bar and opens a new synthesis window with your default email program.
See all the security information on a web page
If you ever find yourself on a "strange" website and want to get more information about what it's doing, click the padlock if the website uses HTTPS or the icon to the left of the URL in the address bar. Here, you can research them cookies, να δεσμεύσετε το JavaScript, να μπλοκάρετε τα popups και άλλα.
Chrome is fantastic in something like this..And the funny thing is that today I define chrome as the main browser after 8 years of using mozilla… Although it bothers me that when chrome opens, 5 processes open and it takes up more memory, of course this it probably makes it a lot faster… I also had a glitch that mozilla is safer in terms of browsing etc… Anyway if anyone can enlighten me on the subject of the above processes I would appreciate it;)
chrome is also secure, it has a sandbox and google has enough money to keep it safe. Personally I continue to use firefox with 50 tabs open. Of course, firefox with such use also has performance problems due to memory overload.
We highly recommend chrome to those who need it for simple browsing. Firefox, in addition to browser is also a tool for web developers
