The same as Paul, simple, and efficient :) - directeur
Ctrol-Apple-D - looks up the definition of any word your mouse is hovering over - Patrick Lightbody
there are keyboard shortcuts? shoot! I just switched to Mac, forgive me :) - Zach Landes
Ctrl-space (the default setting to activate quicksilver). If you like keyboard shortcuts, and you haven't tried quicksilver, I would highly recommend it. Basically you activate the app, start typing and it searches applications, bookmarks, documents, and all sorts of stuff (all customizable), and gives you a list of them in a window, and then a list of available actions, like 'open', 'send e-mail', 'calculate', or 'look up in dictionary'. Really cool, and free. - Robert Felty
ctrl-space with quicksilver. without quicksilver it would be shift-apple-4 - Seth "Seth" Gottlieb

Kevin, Thanks for the cntl-opt-cmd-8 tip. I was just getting annoyed in this coffee shop trying to find the cursor in google docs. This command just solved this for me. - Jon-Paul Bussoli
Another reason why I like friendfeed for procrastination. It even helps my work! heh. - Jon-Paul Bussoli
Just in case any of you have yet to find them all, open Keyboard ShortCuts in Keyboard & Mouse Preferences. - John Lam
Apple-Tab for me. BTW, Ctrl-Apple-D does not work on all words, for example, fails in twirl for me. Otherwise, I didn't know that option so THANKS! - Ivan Stegic

command(apple)-shift-/ opens help, and help goes and finds every other command in every application. i use it like i drink water. - Michael Staton
Ivan: the dictionary service will only work in Cocoa- or Carbon-based applications. Non-cocoa/carbon applications like Twhirl (based on Adobe AIR) don't have access to it. One of my major sticking points in using ported applications. - Mark Trapp
I use the 'capture' dashboard widget for screen capture. It has some additional options, like choosing how to save it (jpg,tiff,png,gif,pdf) the size (in pixels), and the quality. Pretty handy. - Robert Felty
Thanks @Amit. From the guys that do Quicksilver. Nice. (Though ^⌘⌥8 is easy, and I don't want to stay in that mode for a long time. Just enough to give my eyes a break.) - Daniel Shaw
And then did you see how much salt she put on it. She shook the shaker... and then shook it... and then shook it... and then shook it some more. Dang. My ears are ringing just thinking about it. - Tad - pals w/Terrorists
They made chicken fried bacon at cafe 150 -- and they had sausage gravy to put on top too. I think we all expected to die happy immediately following (or during) the meal. I highly recommend it! - Wayne Crosby
Wow. Stunned silence. That link is Pandora's Box Lite. - Casey
this must be from Houston, TX - land of Chix fried everything! I especially love how they dip the chix fried bacon in thick heavy ranch dressing too! yum-O! - Susan Beebe
