TED | 十条黄金省时技巧小贴士

演讲精彩片段（节选）欣赏

First of all, on the web, if you want to scroll down, don't pick up the mouse and use the scroll bar. That’s a terrible waste of time. Do that only if you’re paid by the hour. Instead, hit the space bar. The space bar scrolls down one page. Hold down the Shift key to scroll back up again. So, space bar to scroll down one page; works in every browser, in every kind of computer.

好的。第一，在网络上，当你面对网页的时候 你想要向下滚动（网页）。不要拿起鼠标 接着下拉滚动条。那是可怕的时间浪费。如果你的报酬按小时计算，那你可以那样做。而你应该点击空格键。空格键向下滚动一个页面。按住 Shift键（+空格键）向上滚动回来。所以空格键，向下滚动一个页面。在所有电脑的浏览器上，它都有效。

Also on the web, when you’re filling in one of these forms like your addresses, I assume you know that you can hit the Tab key to jump from box to box to box. But what about the pop-up menu where you put in your state? Don’t open the pop-up menu. That’s a terrible waste of calories. Type the first letter of your state over and over and over. So if you want Connecticut, go, C, C, C. If you want Texas, go T, T, and you jump right to that thing without even opening the pop-up menu.

同样，在网页上，当你在填写一个这样的表格，如你的地址，我猜想，你知道按Tab键从一个框跳到另一个框。但是，面对下拉菜单——比如选择你的州，要怎么做? 不要点开下拉菜单。那是可怕的卡路里消耗。（在键盘上）按下你所在州的第一字母，再按，再按。比如你想选择康涅狄格州（Connecticut），按下，C，C，C。如果是德克萨斯州（Texas），按下，T，T，然后你成功了。不用点开下拉菜单。

Also on the web, when the text is too small, what you do is hold down the Control key and hit plus, plus, plus.You make the text larger with each tap. Works on every computer, every web browser, or minus, minus, to get smaller again. If you’re on the Mac, it might be Command instead.

还有在网络上，当字太小，你可以按下Control键（Ctrl），然后敲”+“，”+“，”+“。每次按键，字就会更大一些。在所有电脑的浏览器上，它都有效。或者按下”−“，”−“，”−“，（字体）又变小些。如果你用苹果系统，相应地，（Ctrl）可能是Command键。

When you’re typing on your Blackberry, Android, iPhone, don’t bother switching layouts to the punctuation layout to hit the period and then a space, then try to capitalize the next letter. Just hit the space bar twice. The phone puts the period, the space, and the capital for you. Go space, space. It is totally amazing.

当你在黑莓、安卓系统手机、iPhone上打字的时候，别那么麻烦地切换到符号界面去输入句号，空格，然后试着让首字母大写。只要按两下空格键。手机就会自动为你添加句号，空格，和大写首字母。按下空格，空格，真是神奇。

Also when it comes to cell phones, on all phones, if you want to redial somebody that you’ve dialed before, all you have to do is hit the call button, and it puts the last phone number into the box for you, and at that point you can hit call again to actually dial it. No need to go to the recent calls list if you’re trying to call somebody just hit the call button again.

还有当说到电话，在所有手机上，如果你想要重拨，给之前打过的某个人，所有你要做的就是，按拨打键，接着手机会为你添加那个号码。然这个时候你按拨打键，再次拨打。你不需要进入通话记录，所以，如果你在试着拨通某个人，只要再次按拨打键。

Something that drives me crazy: When I call you and leave a message on your voice mail, I hear you saying, “Leave a message,” and then I get these 15 seconds of freaking instructions, like we haven't had answering machines for 45 years!

接下来的事，让我疯狂。每当我呼叫你，接着在你的语音邮箱留下信息，我听到你说，“留下信息”，然后我会听到15秒吓人的提示，好像我们已经45年没用电话应答机啦！

I’m not bitter. So it turns out there’s a keyboard shortcut that lets you jump directly to the beep like this.

我不是愤怒。这里有一个键盘快捷键 让你直接得跳到“哔声”,像这样。

Phone: At the tone, please...(Beep)

（电话应答机：听到声音，请——“哔声”）

David Pogue: Unfortunately, the carriers didn’t adopt the same keystroke, so it’s different by carrier, so it devolves upon you to learn the keystroke for the person you’re calling. I didn’t say these were going to be perfect.

David Pogue：不幸地是，运营商没有采用一样的快捷键。所以，运营商不一样，（快捷键）也不一样。你需要去了解所拨打号码的运营商特定的快捷键。我没说这个技巧是完美的。
