I've noticed a trending towards an operation I was unfamilar with: "shift+home".
I suppose I never had much use for it since I generally find that "ctrl+a" solves the problem of selecting all that I had previously written, but I might find a way to use it more fully, now that I know what it does.
I also am glad to have found about "ctrl+L", which highlights the address bar in most browsers (Firefox, Opera, IE, etc.) and allows you to type in or select your next desired website stop.
Opera users (like myself) are spoiled. Nearly anything you can think of using in the web browser can be made to execute as a simple keyboard command, altered to your preferred input combination. Mouse gestures and Opera voice are nice, but I find being able to easily input "w Thomas Edison" to easily be redircted to the wikipedia article of Thomas Alva Edison, or inputting a combo of "xv Mattos" to search xvideos.com site for a new discovery of mine, Monica Mattos, simply sublime.
