How to play MP3 study files from lectures on Amazon Kindle

Tweet

From Ask Dave Taylor:

"One of the experimental, poorly documented features of the new Kindle operating system from Amazon is indeed the ability to play music while you're reading or otherwise using the device. You can't use Pandora or Slacker Radio, though, you need to start by uploading some mp3 files into the device.

Press ALT + Space to play your music. Done? Press the same key sequence to pause the music playback.

Want to skip to the next song? That's what happens when you press ALT + F. "

Google Wave Keyboard Shortcuts

Keyboard Shortcuts

These are some of the keyboard shortcuts I have found useful:

Ctrl then E - Edit message

Shift then Enter - Same function as 'Done' button -- signifies you are finished editing your addition to a wave.

More Tips

Use Folders and saved Searches in the left sidebar. To save a search, enter the query, and then press the "Save search" button on the bottom right hand side of the results panel.

For example:

is:note: When using Google Wave as a personal notebook, and jotting waves that no one else is a participant on. This is probably an outside use case of Wave -- it's purpose is collaboration -- but this handy is:note operator does easily return "notes to self" waves.

Useful keyboard shortcuts in Google Buzz

Tweet

I think Google Buzz is a real micro-blogging tool - not Twitter. You can actually edit your notes/updates in Buzz. For example, delete the ones that are redundant. Or expand a post rather than adding a tweet after tweet to explain your idea.

Useful keyboard shortcuts for Google Buzz include:

- Switch between Gmail and Buzz with keyboard shortcuts: G+I (Go to Inbox) and G+B (Go to Buzz). You must enable keyboard shortcuts from Gmail settings of course.

- Scroll down/up - hit J or K

- "Mute" a post - hit M

- There are even easier to remember shortcuts - "N" - Next message (scroll down the page) and "P" - previous message (scroll up)

- "U" refreshes your page in Google Buzz

Publish an update: Tab + Enter

I'm glad there is a simple way to solve some of the information overload in Google Buzz - hit "N" (next) to select a post, then "M" to mute it - this post and all its comments will disappear from your updates stream.

Many of the Gmail shortcuts work: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=6594

"Google Buzz is RSS-enabled. If you want to subscribe to someone's Buzz in your feed reader, just go to their Google profile page. Once there, you'll see the orange RSS icon appear in the browser's address bar. Click the icon in order to add Buzz to your feed reader."
