[QUOTE="richg99, post: 256604, member: 4376"] Many of you probably already know this...but...for those who didn't... If you are like me, you are often reading some fishing/boating/or ?? site...and the author says something like "I really like the "Owner Twistlock hooks"...." or any other item....and you have NO IDEA what the hook or lure looks like and that he is promoting. Since I have an inquisitve mind ( or maybe I'm just slow)...I've found that if I [size=5][b]highlight[/b][/size] the exact words ---owner twistlock hooks---- then [size=5][b]RIGHT CLICK[/b][/size] my mouse.....an entry comes up that says 'Search Google for 'Owner twistlock hooks' I select that entry and my browser takes me to a Google page. That page not only lists a number of sites that sell the hooks, it often also has a number of images that SHOW what the guy was talking about. Most times, just a glance at the picture is enough for me to backtrack to the story and continue reading. I use Chrome and that is how it works. [size=5][b] Other browsers[/b][/size] might require you to HIGHLIGHT THE WORDS (same as above) HIT CONTROL and C SIMULTANEOUSLY (which copies the words) PUT YOUR CURSOR ON YOUR ADDRESS/SEARCH LINE ON TOP HIT CONTROL and V (which pastes the words into your search line) and HIT ENTER to go find the site. Obviously, I like the way Chrome handles it. Try it. You may like it.....regards, Rich [/QUOTE]
