So here are some of the tricks.......
#1. No need of typing http:// in the address bar
Many time while writing a web address in the browser's address bar we tend to start with HTTP and it becomes wastage of time to type this HTTP with the backslash and all. So here is the solution for this the browser is design in such a way that we don't have to type HTTP in the address bar. Further, we also don't have to type WWW before the actual address starts. we just have to type the domain name of the website that's it. all the other things will be taken care by the browser. To make your job more simple you also don't have to type .com if its a .com site. just type the domain name and CTRL+ENTER and your job is done.
To know how you get to see the web page after you type the domain name follow this link.
#2. How to open the accidentally closed tab.
While surfing the net we tend to open and close many tabs at a go, and in the process of doing this we accidentally close an important tab. No this is a problem, normally we will have to go to history and check for the site you opened and the open it again to get back that tab. This process is time-consuming. So here is a solution, Just enter this keys i.e. CTRL+SHIFT+T. This command will open your last closed tab, also you can do this by right click on new tab in the browser and then selecting the option of reopen closed tab.
#3. Opening a link in a new tab
When we browse something on net we first type our keyword in the search box. After this we get a set of results i.e. in the form of links. Now we have to decide which of the link to follow so as to get the needed information. But in doing this we fail most of the time and every time we have to come back to the result page back and then select the other link. This becomes hectic sometimes, to over come this problem one of the solution is opening each link in a new tab, but for this we have to go to that link and right click and then select the option of open in a new tab. But other then doing this we can do one thing i.e. hold CTRL key and now click any link you want, that link will be opened in the new tab.
#4. Searching an Image
Biggest problem we face is when we have to search with an image and if that image is online then this problems widens. Normally what we do is, we save that image on our hard disk and the try to upload or drag it on to search box and then search that image. But the easy way to do this is hold the S key and right click on that image. This command will search that image on the net. other way of doing this is just drag this image to the search box from wherever it is on the site.
#5 Turing your browser to a Notepad
Many times we need to copy notes from the net and for that we have to go out of the browser and open a notepad or any other application to type the notes. But you can turn your browser to a Notepad do this task simpler. you can do this by just copy pasting below code in your address bar.
Code:
data:text/html,%20<html%20contenteditable><Title>Notepad</Title>

#6 Getting Raid of search history
Number of times when surfing the internet we dont want our history to be saved. So what we do is we just clear the history after we are done with our searching. But same thing we can do using Incognito mode on our browser. This mode does not save our history. You can enter in this mode by this command i.e. Hold CTRL+SHIFT+N key.
#7. You can use your Google as....

1. Calculator: You can just type what you want to calculate and google will give yo the answer for this. for e.g. 123*23.
