Is there any way I can make my shortcuts even faster?
As a matter of fact, there sure is! To begin though, why would you want to? Well, if you usually work with your programs maximized (for example, you can't see your desktop), it's easier to press a shortcut key combination than to minimize the current application and then click a shortcut on the desktop.
For example, I have shortcuts on my desktop to several of my most frequently visited Web sites and I've assigned them each a shortcut key.
Now, if I'm working in MS Word and need to hop over to one of those sites, I simply press its shortcut key. A browser window will open and voila, I'm on the site! It's much easier than minimizing Word, opening up Internet Explorer, hunting through my favorites, clicking on the link and having the page load. But with shortcut keys, I'm only a keystroke (or two) away!
Okay, here's how to set up shortcut keys for yourself:
1.) Right click on the shortcut you wish to have a shortcut key for and then select Properties.
Note: This seems to work best when the icon in question lives on your desktop. I've tried it time after time for icons in the Quick Launch toolbar (next to the Start button) and it just doesn't seem to work there.
2.) You'll see a box for the shortcut key. Click it.
3.) You won't be able to delete the "None" label that's currently sitting there, so don't even try (I mean, I guess you could try if you really feel the need to, but it won't get you very far!) Instead, just press the key you would like to use for your shortcut. You can use either letters, numbers or (my favorite) function keys. Finally, click OK when you're done.
Now, if you decide to use letters or numbers, you'll have to use Ctrl + Alt + yourkey to activate the shortcut. Function keys are a single keystroke affair (just be sure to pick ones you don't use in your favorite programs or you may be launching applications when you're really trying to do a function). Other than that, this little trick can save you a lot of time!

Hi,
This is a nice link on protected mode and real mode memory operations..... Click on the title..
Hmm...everytime to know whether there has been any addition of products or addition of features in any of the products in Google, we go to 'New Features' section under each product or directly to Google Labs (list of all products)
But today, went to a page on Wiki, which lists all products of Google. Found there are quite a few number of products, which I am hearing for the first time. Few of them are listed below:
Google Secure Access (about it on Wiki. Download unavailable)
Google Blogger Web Comments (Again download unavailable. But a good extension to Firefox)
Google Friend Connect, etc. etc.
In this earlier post of mine, a wedding was completely planned online using Google Products. Today came to know that this complete use of online resources, instead of local hard disk, to store, plan and execute is called 'Cloud Computing'
What Cloud Computing really means? Someone has tried explaining it here, since there are multiple connotations to this 'phrase du jour', as it has become.
Difference between Grid Computing and Cloud Computing:
Grid computing is a technology approach to managing a cloud. In effect, all clouds are managed by a grid but not all grids manage a cloud. More specifically, a computer grid and a cloud are synonymous, while a data grid and a cloud can be different. [From Wiki]
Some available clouds are here
