I just realized you can use alt+number on facebook.

alt+1 - home
alt+2 - profile
alt+3 - friend requests
alt+4 - messages
alt+5 - notifications
alt+6 - edit profile
alt+7 - privacy settings
alt+8 - facebook group
alt+9 - facebook terms
alt+0 - help

Weird. Probably old news but still cool to me.

Are you sure those aren't browser shortcuts?

I suppose they are. I also suppose that would make me some sort of idiot.

How do these work? (how do they know what key to associate to what link?)

It's pre-programmed into the OS.

I tried alt+1, alt+2... none worked. Maybe because I have chat windows open?

I'm using Chrome. I know browser shortcuts can do specific things within the browser, but how can it assign itself to links and actions of a specific web page? Should I assume that the website itself can assign actions to the keys? If so, how?
