Quick click to your favorite webpages!

Here's a really great tip that you may not know about. The internet browser you're using (i.e. Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox) has a toolbar at the top which you can customize with bookmarks to your most visited sites! It's really great! I use mine every day! Just go to any page you visit frequently, then click on Favorites or Bookmarks, select "Add to Favorites" or "Bookmark this Page" then click on the folder labeled "Links" or "Bookmarks Toolbar." Click "Ok" or "Done." Now look at the top of your browser under the URL you'll see the bookmark you created. If you're using Internet Explorer it may be on the right of "GO" you can single right click on the toolbar area and uncheck "lock the toolbars" Then you can drag the link bar down to display the full bookmark names. YEAH! That's it! Now when you open up your browser the links you bookmarked on the toolbar will automatically appear! Great deal, huh? You can customize this even more by editing the name of the bookmark so you can fit more links up there! Just right click on the link in the toolbar and click "rename." Some of the bookmarks may even have a little logo - for those I just leave the title blank and then I just click on the logo to go to the site. If you have about over 15 bookmarks on the toolbar the remaining bookmarks will be to the right under an arrow. You can arrange these bookmarks in any order you like from left to right on your tool bar (and the drop down list if you have that many) just by dragging and dropping them where you want them to appear. Cool, huh?
